Psalms

Chapter 09

{Hymn of thanksgiving to God}
1 I will praise you, O Jehovah/God.

With my whole heart
I will show forth all Your marvelous works.

2 I will be glad and rejoice in You.

I will sing praise to Your name,
O You Most High.

3 When my enemies are turned back,
they shall fall and perish at Your presence.

4 For You have maintained my right and my cause.

You sat on the throne . . . judging right.

 5 You have rebuked the heathen.
 
You have destroyed the wicked.

You have put out their name forever and ever.

6 O you enemy,
destructions are come to a perpetual end.

And you have destroyed cities.

Their memorial is perished with them.

7 But Jehovah/God shall endure forever.

He has prepared His throne for judgment.

8 And He shall judge the world in righteousness.

He shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

9~~Jehovah/God will be a fortification
for the oppressed . . .
a castle in times of trouble.

10~~And those who know Your Name
will put their trust in You.

For you, Jehovah/God, have not forsaken those who seek You.

11a~~ Sing praises to Jehovah/God Who dwells in Zion
  {a reference to the temple that was construction on Mt Zion in
  Jerusalem}.

11b Declare among the people His doings.

12 When He makes inquisition for blood,
He remembers them.

He forgets not the cry of the humble.

13 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah/God.

Consider my trouble which I suffer of those who hate me . . .
You Who lifts me up from the gates of death . . . 14
that I may show forth all Your praise
in the gates of the daughter of Zion.

I will rejoice in Your salvation/deliverance.

15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made . . .
in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.

16 Jehovah/God is known by the judgment
which He executes.

The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.

Higgaion
  {higgayown - means resounding music - remember
  the Psalms were sung though today we have lost
  the melody}.

Selah
  {Selah means singers rest and instruments play on -
  it is a picture of you resting while the Grace of God
  continues on}.

17 The wicked shall be turned into Sheol/'the grave'/Hades . . .
and all the nations that forget 'Elohiym/Godhead.

18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten.

The expectation of the poor shall not perish forever.

19 Arise, O Jehovah/God.

Let not man prevail.

Let the heathen be judged in Your sight.

20 Put them in fear, O Jehovah/God. . .
that the nations may know themselves to be but men.

Selah

  - it is a picture of you resting while the Grace of God
  continues on}.
