Psalms 9:7

God's faithfulnessGod's power and sovereignty

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

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

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

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

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