< Psalms 28 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. To thee, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest thou be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.
Of David to you O Yahweh - I call out O rock my may not you be deaf from me lest you should be silent from me and I will be equal with [those who] go down [the] pit.
2 Hearken to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy temple.
Hear [the] sound of supplications my when cry for help I to you when lift up I hands my to [the] innermost room of holiness your.
3 Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbours, but evils are in their hearts.
May not you drag away me with wicked [people] and with [those who] do wickedness [who] speak peace with neighbors their and evil [is] in heart their.
4 Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense unto them.
Requite to them according to work their and according to [the] wickedness of deeds their according to [the] work of hands their requite to them repay recompense their to them.
5 Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, thou shalt pull them down, and shalt not build them up.
For not they consider [the] deeds of Yahweh and to [the] work of hands his he will tear down them and not he will rebuild them.
6 Blessed be the Lord, for he has hearkened to the voice of my petition.
[be] blessed Yahweh for he has heard [the] sound of supplications my.
7 The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I give praise to him.
Yahweh - [is] strength my and shield my in him it has trusted heart my and I was helped and it exulted heart my and from song my I will give thanks to him.
8 The Lord is the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.
Yahweh [is] strength of them and [is] [the] refuge of [the] salvation of anointed his he.
9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.
Save! - people your and bless inheritance your and shepherd them and carry them until perpetuity.
