¹ I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;
    I will recount all of your ^(a)wonderful deeds.
² I will be glad and ^(b)exult in you;
    I will ^(c)sing praise to your name, ^(d)O Most High.

³ When my enemies turn back,
    they stumble and perish before^[c] your presence.
⁴ For you have ^(e)maintained my just cause;
    you have ^(f)sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.

⁵ You have ^(g)rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;
    you have ^(h)blotted out their name forever and ever.
⁶ The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;
    their cities you rooted out;
    the very memory of them has perished.

⁷ But the Lord sits enthroned forever;
    he has established his throne for justice,
⁸ and he ⁽ⁱ⁾judges the world with righteousness;
    he ^(j)judges the peoples with uprightness.

⁹ The Lord is ^(k)a stronghold for ^(l)the oppressed,
    a stronghold in ^(m)times of trouble.
¹⁰ And those who ⁽ⁿ⁾know your name put their trust in you,
    for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

¹¹ Sing praises to the Lord, who ^(o)sits enthroned in Zion!
    Tell among the peoples his ^(p)deeds!
¹² For he who ^(q)avenges blood is mindful of them;
    he ^(r)does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

^13 (s)Be gracious to me, O Lord!
    See my affliction from those who hate me,
    O you who lift me up from ^(t)the gates of death,
¹⁴ that I may recount all your praises,
    that in the gates of ^(u)the daughter of Zion
    I may ^(v)rejoice in your salvation.

¹⁵ The nations have sunk in ^(w)the pit that they made;
    in ^(x)the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.
¹⁶ The Lord has made himself ^(y)known; he has executed judgment;
    the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion.^[d] Selah

¹⁷ The wicked shall ^(z)return to Sheol,
    all the nations that ^(aa)forget God.

¹⁸ For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
    and ^(ab)the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.

^19 (ac)Arise, O Lord! Let not ^(ad)man prevail;
    let the nations be judged before you!
²⁰ Put them in fear, O Lord!
    Let the nations know that they are but ^(ae)men! Selah
