8 The Lord rules forever,has set up his throne for judgment.
9 It is he who judges the world with justice,who judges the peoples with fairness.
10 The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,a stronghold in times of trouble.
11 Those who know your name trust in you;you never forsake those who seek you, Lord.
12 Sing hymns to the Lord enthroned on Zion;proclaim his deeds among the nations!
13 For the avenger of bloodshed remembers,does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
14 Be gracious to me, Lord;see how my foes afflict me!You alone can raise me from the gates of death.
