< Psalms 28 >
1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
huic David ad te Domine clamabo Deus meus ne sileas a me nequando taceas a me et adsimilabor descendentibus in lacum
2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
exaudi vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
ne simul tradas me cum peccatoribus et cum operantibus iniquitatem ne perdideris me qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo mala autem sunt in cordibus eorum
4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
da illis secundum opera ipsorum et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis redde retributionem eorum ipsis
5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et in opera manuum eius destrues illos et non aedificabis eos
6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
benedictus Dominus quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
Dominus adiutor meus et protector meus in ipso speravit cor meum et adiutus sum et refloruit caro mea et ex voluntate mea confitebor ei
8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
Dominus fortitudo plebis suae et protector salvationum christi sui est
9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.
salvam fac plebem tuam et benedic hereditati tuae et rege eos et extolle eos usque in aeternum
