Pray Nine

Psalm 9:11-16
Sing praises to the Lord

who reigns in Jerusalem.

Tell the world

about his unforgettable deeds.

For he who avenges murder

cares for the helpless.

He does not ignore

the cries of those who suffer.

Lord, have mercy on me.

See how my enemies torment me.

Snatch me back

from the jaws of death.

Save me so I can praise you publicly

at Jerusalem’s gates,

so I can rejoice

that you have rescued me.

The nations have fallen

into the pit they dug for others.

Their own feet have been caught

in the trap they set.

The Lord is known for his justice.
