4 For you have upheld my right and my cause,

sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.

5 You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;

you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.

6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,

you have uprooted their cities;

even the memory of them has perished.

7 The Lord reigns forever;

he has established his throne for judgment.

8 He rules the world in righteousness

and judges the peoples with equity.

4 For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.

5 You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;

you have blotted out their name forever and ever.

6 The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;

their cities you rooted out;

the very memory of them has perished.

7 But the Lord sits enthroned forever;

he has established his throne for justice,

8 and he judges the world with righteousness;

he judges the peoples with uprightness.

4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause;

Thou satest in the throne judging right.

5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked,

Thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end:

And thou hast destroyed cities;

Their memorial is perished with them.

7 But the Lord shall endure for ever:

He hath prepared his throne for judgment.

8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness,

He shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

4 For you have judged in my favor;

from your throne you have judged with fairness.

5 You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;

you have erased their names forever.

6 The enemy is finished, in endless ruins;

the cities you uprooted are now forgotten.

7 But the Lord reigns forever,

executing judgment from his throne.

8 He will judge the world with justice

and rule the nations with fairness.

4 You have heard my complaint;

you sat on your throne and judged by what was right.

5 You spoke strongly against the foreign nations and destroyed the wicked;

you wiped out their names forever and ever.

6 The enemy is gone forever.

You destroyed their cities;

no one even remembers them.

7 But the Lord rules forever.

He sits on his throne to judge,

8 and he will judge the world in fairness;

he will decide what is fair for the nations.

4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause;

Thou sittest in the throne judging righteously.

5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked;

Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.

6 The enemy are come to an end, they are desolate for ever;

And the cities which thou hast overthrown,

The very remembrance of them is perished.

7 But Jehovah sitteth as king for ever:

He hath prepared his throne for judgment;

8 And he will judge the world in righteousness,

He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.

4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously. 5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. 6 O enemy! destructions are ended for ever. —Thou hast also destroyed cities, even the remembrance of them hath perished. 7 But Jehovah sitteth for ever; he hath ordained his throne for judgment. 8 And it is he that will judge the world with righteousness; he shall execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.

4 You have defended my just cause: 

You sat down on your throne as a fair judge. 

5 You condemned nations. 

You destroyed wicked people. 

You wiped out their names forever and ever. 

6 The enemy is finished—in ruins forever. 

You have uprooted their cities. 

Even the memory of them has faded. 

7 Yet, the Lord is enthroned forever. 

He has set up his throne for judgment. 

8 He alone judges the world with righteousness. 

He judges ⸤its⸥ people fairly. 

4 For You have upheld my just cause;

You are seated on Your throne as a righteous judge.

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;

You have uprooted the cities,

and the very memory of them has perished.

7 But the Lord sits enthroned forever;

He has established His throne for judgment.

8 He judges the world with righteousness;

He executes judgment on the nations with fairness.

4 For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne giving righteous judgment.

5 You have rebuked the nations, you have destroyed the wicked;

you have blotted out their name forever and ever.

6 The enemies have vanished in everlasting ruins;

their cities you have rooted out;

the very memory of them has perished.

7 But the Lord sits enthroned forever,

he has established his throne for judgment.

8 He judges the world with righteousness;

he judges the peoples with equity.

4 For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne judging correctly.

5 You have rebuked the nations;

you have destroyed the wicked.

Their name you have blotted out

forever and ever.

6 The enemies are destroyed in ruins forever,

and you have uprooted their cities;

their very memory has perished.

7 But Yahweh sits enthroned forever.

He has established his throne for judgment.

8 And he will judge the world with righteousness.

He will judge the peoples with equity.

4 You have proved that I haven’t done anything wrong.

You have sat on your throne and judged fairly.

5 You have punished the nations. You have destroyed evil people.

You have erased their names from your book for ever and ever.

6 The enemy has been destroyed forever.

You have leveled their cities to the ground.

Even the memory of them is gone.

7 The Lord rules forever.

He has set up his throne so that he can judge people.

8 He will judge the world in keeping with what is right.

He will rule over all of its people fairly.

4 For You have maintained my just cause;

You have sat 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 has come to an end in perpetual ruins,

And You have uprooted the cities;

The very memory of them has perished.

7 But the Lord abides forever;

He has established His throne for judgment,

8 And He will judge the world in righteousness;

He will execute judgment for the peoples with equity.
