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

9The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

10Those who know Your name trust in You, for You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.

11Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; proclaim His deeds among the nations.

12For the Avenger of bloodshed remembers; He does not ignore the cry of the afflicted.
