 1 I will praise *thee*, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

 2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

 3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.

 4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.**

 5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

 6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.*

 7 But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.

 8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

 9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.*

 10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

 11 Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.

 12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.*

 13 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble *which I suffer* of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

 14 That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

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

 16 The LORD is known *by* the judgment *which* he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.*

 17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, *and* all the nations that forget God.

 18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall *not* perish for ever.

 19 Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.

 20 Put them in fear, O LORD: *that* the nations may know themselves *to be but* men. Selah.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 9:0](/kjv/psalms/9/0). 

*David praiseth God for executing of judgment: he inciteth others to praise him: he prayeth that he may have cause to praise him.* 

To the chief musician upon Muth-labben. 
A Psalm of David. 

***Title. Upon Muth-labben.*****—** לבן מות על *al muth labben.* 

*Upon the death of the champion.*Thus also the Chaldee renders it: "To be sung on occasion of the death of the man who went forth from the camp." And accordingly many have supposed that the Psalm relates to that history of Goliath, which we have in [1 Samuel 17:0](/kjv/1-samuel/17/0). However, all that we have certain about it is, that it was occasioned by some great distress, from which it pleased God to deliver David. Fenwick renders the title, "To him that giveth the victory, concerning things secret, to the Son:" and some of the versions are favourable to this interpretation. The LXX, Ethiopic, and Vulgate, read, "For the secret things, or mysteries of the Son." The Arabic intitles it, "Concerning the mysteries of the Son;" and then adds, "in relation to the glory of Christ, and his resurrection and kingdom, and the destruction of all the disobedient." St. Jerome says, that this Psalm points at the overthrow and final destruction of Antichrist.
