Psalms 28

1

To you, O Yahweh, I will call. My rock, don't be deaf to me; Lest, if you be silent to me, I become like those who go down into the pit.

2

Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, When I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.

3

Don't draw me away with the wicked, With the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.

4

Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

5

Because they don't regard the works of Yahweh, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.

6

Blessed be Yahweh, Because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

7

Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song will I praise him.

8

Yahweh is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

9

Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.

A Psalm by David.
