Catholic Public Domain Bible	New American Bible
¹ Unto the end. For the secrets of the Son. A Psalm of David.	¹ For the leader; according to Muth Labben. A psalm of David.
² I will confess to you, Lord, with my whole heart. I will recount all your wonders.	² I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will declare all your wondrous deeds.
³ I will rejoice and exult in you. I will sing a psalm to your name, O Most High.	³ I will delight and rejoice in you; I will sing hymns to your name, Most High.
⁴ For my enemy will be turned back. They will be weakened and perish before your face.	⁴ For my enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you.
⁵ For you have accomplished my judgment and my cause. You have sat upon the throne that judges justice.	⁵ You upheld my right and my cause, seated on your throne, judging justly.
⁶ You have rebuked the Gentiles, and the impious one has perished. You have deleted their name in eternity and for all generations.	⁶ You rebuked the nations, you destroyed the wicked; their name you blotted out for all time
⁷ The spears of the enemy have failed in the end, and their cities, you have destroyed. Their memory has perished with a loud noise.	⁷ The enemies have been ruined forever; you destroyed their cities; their memory has perished.
⁸ But the Lord remains in eternity. He has prepared his throne in judgment.	⁸ The LORD rules forever, has set up a throne for judgment.
⁹ And he will judge the whole world in equity. He will judge the people in justice.	⁹ It is God who governs the world with justice, who judges the peoples with fairness.
¹⁰ And the Lord has become a refuge for the poor, a helper in opportunity, in tribulation.	¹⁰ The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, stronghold in times of trouble.
¹¹ And may they hope in you, who know your name. For you have not abandoned those seeking you, Lord.	¹¹ Those who honor your name trust in you; you never forsake those who seek you, LORD.
¹² Sing a psalm to the Lord, who dwells in Zion. Announce his study among the Gentiles.	¹² Sing hymns to the LORD enthroned on Zion; proclaim God's deeds among the nations!
¹³ Because of those who yearned for their blood, he has remembered them. He has not forgotten the cry of the poor.	¹³ For the avenger of bloodshed remembers, does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
¹⁴ Have mercy on me, Lord. See my humiliation from my enemies.	¹⁴ Have mercy on me, LORD; see how my foes afflict me! You alone can raise me from the gates of death.
¹⁵ You lift me up from the gates of death, so that I may announce all your praises at the gates of the daughter of Zion.	¹⁵ Then I will declare all your praises, sing joyously of your salvation in the gates of daughter Zion.
¹⁶ I will exult in your salvation. The Gentiles have become trapped in the ruin that they made. Their foot has been caught in the same snare that they themselves had hidden.	¹⁶ The nations fall into the pit they dig; in the snare they hide, their own foot is caught.
¹⁷ The Lord will be recognized when making judgments. The sinner has been caught in the works of his own hands.	¹⁷ The LORD is revealed in this divine rule: by the deeds they do the wicked are trapped. Higgaion. Selah
¹⁸ The sinners will be turned into Hell: all the Gentiles who have forgotten God.	¹⁸ To Sheol the wicked will depart, all the nations that forget God.
¹⁹ For the poor will not be forgotten in the end. The patience of the poor will not perish in the end.	¹⁹ The needy will never be forgotten, nor will the hope of the afflicted ever fade.
²⁰ Rise up, Lord: do not let man be strengthened. Let the Gentiles be judged in your sight.	²⁰ Arise, LORD, let no mortal prevail; let the nations be judged in your presence.
²¹ O Lord, establish a lawgiver over them, so that the Gentiles may know that they are only men.	²¹ Strike them with terror, LORD; show the nations they are mere mortals. Selah
²² So then, why, O Lord, have you withdrawn far away? Why have you overlooked us in opportunity, in tribulation?
²³ While the impious is arrogant, the poor is enflamed. They are held by the counsels that they devise.
²⁴ For the sinner is praised by the desires of his soul, and the iniquitous is blessed.
²⁵ The sinner has provoked the Lord; according to the multitude of his wrath, he will not seek him.
²⁶ God is not before his sight. His ways are stained at all times. Your judgments are removed from his face. He will be master of all his enemies.
²⁷ For he has said in his heart, “I will not be disturbed: from generation to generation without evil.”
²⁸ His mouth is full of curses, and bitterness, and deceit. Under his tongue are hardship and sorrow.
²⁹ He sits in ambush, with resources in hidden places, so that he may execute the innocent.
³⁰ His eyes catch sight of the poor. He lies in ambush, in hiding like a lion in his den. He lies in ambush, so that he may seize the poor, to seize the poor as he draws him in.
³¹ With his snare, he will bring him down. He will crouch down and pounce, when he has power over the poor.
³² For he has said in his heart, “God has forgotten, he has turned away his face, lest he see to the end.”
³³ O Lord God, rise up. Let your hand be exalted. Do not forget the poor.
³⁴ How has the impious one provoked God? For he has said in his heart, “He will not inquire.”
³⁵ You do see, for you examine hardship and sorrow, so that you may deliver them into your hands. The poor one has been abandoned to you. You will be a helper to the orphan.
³⁶ Break the arm of the sinner and the malicious. His sin will be sought, and it will not be found.
³⁷ The Lord shall reign in eternity, even forever and ever. You will perish the Gentiles from his land.
³⁸ The Lord has heeded the desire of the poor. Your ear has listened to the preparation of their heart,
³⁹ so as to judge for the orphan and the humble, so that man may no longer presume to magnify himself upon the earth.
