< Psalms 28 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, Jehovah, do I call; my rock, be not silent unto me, lest, [if] thou keep silence toward me, I become like them that go down into 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 the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.
exaudi vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum
3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, and mischief is in their heart.
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 Give them according to their doing, and according to the wickedness of their deeds; give them after the work of their hands, render to them their desert.
da illis secundum opera ipsorum et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis redde retributionem eorum ipsis
5 For they regard not the deeds of Jehovah, nor the work of his hands: he will destroy them, and not build them up.
quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et in opera manuum eius destrues illos et non aedificabis eos
6 Blessed be Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
benedictus Dominus quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae
7 Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.
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 Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.
Dominus fortitudo plebis suae et protector salvationum christi sui est
9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance; and feed them, and lift them up for ever.
salvam fac plebem tuam et benedic hereditati tuae et rege eos et extolle eos usque in aeternum
