< Psalms 28 >
1 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.
“Of David.” Unto thee, O Lord, will I call; O my rock, turn not unheeding from me: lest thou turn away silent from me, and I become like those that go down into the pit.
2 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.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the most holy place of thy sanctuary.
3 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.
Snatch me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of injustice, who speak peace with their neighbors, with mischief in their heart.
4 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.
Give unto them according to their doing, and according to the evil of their deeds; according to the work of their hands do thou give unto them: bestow their [just] recompense on them.
5 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.
Because they have no regard for the doings of the Lord, nor the works of his hands: may he pull them down, and not build them up.
6 [be] blessed Yahweh for he has heard [the] sound of supplications my.
Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7 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.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him hath my heart trusted, and I am helped, and my heart exulteth; and with my song will I thank him.
8 Yahweh [is] strength of them and [is] [the] refuge of [the] salvation of anointed his he.
The Lord is strength unto them, and he is the fortress of victory of his anointed.
9 Save! - people your and bless inheritance your and shepherd them and carry them until perpetuity.
Help thy people, and bless thy heritage: and feed them, and exalt them unto all eternity.
