Psalms of David - Modern Translation - Psalm 9

I will praise You, O Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell of all the wonders You have done.

I will rejoice and sing to You,
for You, O Most High, are my strength and my song.

When troubles rise around me, You stand beside me.
You are my refuge, my safe and loving shelter.

You uphold what is good and right,
and Your kindness never fails.

O Lord, You are a stronghold for the weary,
a refuge in times of need.

All who seek You find peace,
for You never turn away those who call upon You.

Sing praises to the Lord, who reigns with love!
Let His goodness be known among all people.

For He remembers the cries of the hurting,
and He lifts them up in His mercy.

O Lord, be gracious to me,
lift me from sorrow and fill me with joy,
that I may declare Your goodness
and rejoice in Your saving love.

For You, O Lord, are forever faithful,
and those who trust in You
will dwell in Your peace.
