I will tell about all the miracles you have done. | 1 I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works. | 1 {To the chief Musician. Upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David.} I will praise Jehovah with my whole heart; I will recount all thy marvellous works. | 2 I will be glad and exult in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. | 2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. | 2 I will find joy and be glad about you. I will make music to praise your name, O Most High. | 2 I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High. | 2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee; I will sing forth thy name, O Most High. | 3 When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish before You. | 3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence. | 3 When my enemies retreat, they will stumble and die in your presence. | 3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence. | 3 When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished at thy presence: | 4 For You have maintained my just cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously. | 4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right. | 4 You have defended my just cause: You sat down on your throne as a fair judge. | 4 For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously. | 4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously. | 5 You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever. | 5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. | 5 You condemned nations. You destroyed wicked people. You wiped out their names forever and ever. | 5 You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked.

| 6 The enemy has come to an end in perpetual ruins, And You have uprooted the cities; The very memory of them has perished. | 6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them. | 6 The enemy is finished-in ruins forever. You have uprooted their cities. Even the memory of them has faded. | 6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished. | 6 O enemy! destructions are ended for ever. Thou hast also destroyed cities, even the remembrance of them hath perished. | 7 But the LORD abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment, | 7 But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment. | 7 Yet, the LORD is enthroned forever. He has set up his throne for judgment. | 7 But Yahweh reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment. | 7 But Jehovah sitteth for ever; he hath ordained his throne for judgment. | 8 And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will execute judgment for the peoples with equity. | 8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. | 8 He alone judges the world with righteousness. He judges [its] people fairly. | 8 He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness. | 8 And it is he that will judge the world with righteousness; he shall execute judgment upon the peoples with equity. | 9 The LORD also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of trouble; | 9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. | 9 The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. | 9 Yahweh will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble. | 9 And Jehovah will be a refuge to the oppressed one, a refuge in times of distress. | 10 And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You. | 10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. | 10 Those who know your name trust you, O LORD, because you have never deserted those who seek your help. | 10 Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek you. | 10 And they that know thy name will confide in thee; for thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |

Announce to the nations what he has done. | 11 Sing praises to Yahweh, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done. | 11 Sing psalms to Jehovah who dwelleth in Zion; tell among the peoples his doings. | 12 For He who requires blood remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the afflicted. | 12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble. | 12 The one who avenges murder has remembered oppressed people. He has never forgotten their cries. | 12 For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn't forget the cry of the afflicted. | 12 For when he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them; the cry of the afflicted ones hath he not forgotten. | 13 Be gracious to me, O LORD; See my affliction from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death, | 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: | 13 Have pity on me, O LORD. Look at what I suffer because of those who hate me. You take me away from the gates of death | 13 Have mercy on me, Yahweh. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death; | 13 Be gracious unto me, O Jehovah; consider mine affliction from them that hate me, lifting me up from the gates of death: | 14 That I may tell of all Your praises, That in the gates of the daughter of Zion I may rejoice in Your salvation. | 14 That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation. | 14 so that I may recite your praises one by one in the gates of Zion and find joy in your salvation. | 14 that I may show forth all your praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice in your salvation. | 14 That I may declare all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will be joyful in thy salvation. | 15 The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught. | 15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. | 15 The nations have sunk into the pit they have made. Their feet are caught in the net they have hidden [to trap others]. | 15 The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken. | 15 The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made; in the net that they hid is their own foot taken. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
