Psalm 9:11-20

We shall tell among the peoples the glorious deeds of the Lord.

  11Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion!
    Tell among the people God’s deeds!

  12The LORD who avenges blood is mindful of them,
    and does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

  13Be gracious to me, O LORD!
    See what I suffer from those who hate me;
    You are the One who lift me up from the gates of death,

  14that I may recount all your praises,
    and, in the gates of the daughter of Zion,
    rejoice in your deliverance.

We shall tell among the peoples the glorious deeds of the Lord.

  15The nations have sunk in the pit which they made;
    their own foot has been caught in the net which they hid.

  16The LORD is made known! The LORD has executed judgment!
    The wicked are snared in the work of their own hands.

  17The wicked shall depart to Sheol,
    all the nations that forget God.

  18For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
    and the hope of the poor shall not perish for ever.

  19Arise, O LORD! Let not mortals prevail;
    let the nations be judged before you!

  20Put them in fear, O LORD;
    let the nations know that they are mortal!

We shall tell among the peoples the glorious deeds of the Lord.
