3 When my enemies turn back,they stumble and perish in your presence.
4 For you have maintained my just cause.You sit on the throne judging righteously.
5 You have rebuked the nations.You have destroyed the wicked.You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin.The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
7 But the Lord reigns forever.He has prepared his throne for judgment.
8 He will judge the world in righteousness.He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9 The Lord will also be a high tower for the oppressed;a high tower in times of trouble.
