Context of Psalms 9:14
12For He who avenges blood [unjustly shed] remembers them (His people); He does not forget the cry of the afflicted and abused. 13Have mercy on me and be gracious to me, O Lord; See how I am afflicted by those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death, That I may tell aloud all Your praises, That in the gates of the daughter of Zion (Jerusalem) I may rejoice in Your salvation and Your help. 15The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught. 16The Lord has made Himself known; He executes judgment; The wicked are trapped by the work of their own hands. Higgaion (meditation) Selah.
