Psalms 9:5-8

The LORD Reigns Forever: Thanksgiving for Righteous Judgment and Refuge for the Oppressed

Thanksgiving -> vindication -> eternal righteous reign -> refuge for oppressed -> Zion proclamation -> mercy plea -> wicked reversal -> warning and hope -> nations humbled

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

5You have rebuked the nations; You have destroyed the wicked; You have erased their name forever and ever.

6The enemy has come to eternal ruin, and You have uprooted their cities; the very memory of them has vanished.

7But the LORD abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment.

8He judges the world with justice; He governs the people with equity.
