< Psalms 28 >
1 [A Psalm] of David. To you, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest you be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.
A ti, o! Jehová, llamaré: fuerza mía, no me dejes: porque dejándome no sea semejante a los que descienden al sepulcro.
2 Listen to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to you, when I lift up my hands toward your holy temple.
Oye la voz de mis ruegos, cuando clamo a ti: cuando alzo mis manos al templo de tu santidad.
3 Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors, but evils are in their hearts.
No me tires con los malos, y con los que hacen iniquidad: que hablan paz con sus prójimos, y la maldad está en su corazón.
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 to them.
Dáles conforme a su obra, y conforme a la malicia de sus hechos: conforme a la obra de sus manos, dáles: págales su paga.
5 Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, you shall pull them down, and shall not build them up.
Porque no entendieron las obras de Jehová, y el hecho de sus manos, derribarlos ha, y no los edificará.
6 Blessed be the Lord, for he has listened to the voice of my petition.
Bendito Jehová, que oyó la voz de mis ruegos.
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.
Jehová es mi fortaleza, y mi escudo: en él esperó mi corazón, y yo fui ayudado: y gozóse mi corazón, y con mi canción le alabaré.
8 The Lord is the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.
Jehová es la fortaleza de ellos: y el esfuerzo de las saludes de su ungido es él.
9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.
Salva a tu pueblo, y bendice a tu heredad: y pastoréalos, y ensálzalos para siempre.
