## Yahweh Will Judge the World in Righteousness ###### 1 I will give thanks to Yahweh with all my heart; I will recount all Your wondrous deeds. ###### 2 I will be glad and exult in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. ###### 3 When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish before You. ###### 4 For You have maintained my justice and my cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously. ###### 5 You have rebuked the nations, You have made the wicked perish; You have blotted out their name forever and ever. ###### 6 The enemy has come to an end in perpetual ruins, And You have uprooted the cities; The very memory of them has perished. ###### 7 But Yahweh abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment, ###### 8 And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will render justice for the peoples with equity. ###### 9 Yahweh also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of distress; ###### 10 And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek You. ###### 11 Sing praises to Yahweh, who abides in Zion; Declare among the peoples His acts. ###### 12 For He who requires blood remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the afflicted. ###### 13 Be gracious to me, O Yahweh; See my affliction from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death, ###### 14 That I may recount all Your praises, That in the gates of the daughter of Zion I may rejoice in Your 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. ###### 16 Yahweh has made Himself known; He has executed judgment. In the work of his own hands the wicked is snared. Higgaion Selah. ###### 17 The wicked will return to Sheol, _Even_ all the nations who forget God. ###### 18 For the needy will not always be forgotten, Nor the hope of the afflicted perish forever. ###### 19 Arise, O Yahweh, do not let man prevail; Let the nations be judged before You. ###### 20 Put them in fear, O Yahweh; Let the nations know that they are but men. Selah.
