< Psalms 28 >
1 A Psalme of David. Unto thee, O Lord, doe I crie: O my strength, be not deafe toward mee, lest, if thou answere me not, I be like them that goe downe into 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 Heare the voyce of my petitions, when I crie vnto thee, when I holde vp mine handes towarde thine holy Oracle.
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 Drawe mee not away with the wicked, and with the woorkers of iniquitie: which speake friendly to their neighbours, when malice is 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 Reward them according to their deedes, and according to the wickednes of their inuentions: recompense them after the woorke of their handes: render them their reward.
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 For they regarde not the woorkes of the Lord, nor the operation of his handes: therefore breake them downe, and builde them not vp.
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 Praised be the Lord, for he hath heard the voyce of my petitions.
[be] blessed Yahweh for he has heard [the] sound of supplications my.
7 The Lord is my strength and my shielde: mine heart trusted in him, and I was helped: therfore mine heart shall reioyce, and with my song will I praise 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 their strength, and he is the strength of the deliuerances of his anointed.
Yahweh [is] strength of them and [is] [the] refuge of [the] salvation of anointed his he.
9 Saue thy people, and blesse thine inheritance: feede them also, and exalt them for euer.
Save! - people your and bless inheritance your and shepherd them and carry them until perpetuity.
