תהילים 28

1 לדוד אליך יהוה אקרא-- צורי אל-תחרש ממני פן-תחשה ממני ונמשלתי עם-יורדי בור

To thee, O Jehovah, I will call. My rock, be not thou deaf to me, lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like those who go down into the pit.

2 שמע קול תחנוני בשועי אליך בנשאי ידי אל-דביר קדשך

Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

3 אל-תמשכני עם-רשעים ועם-פעלי-און דברי שלום עם-רעיהם ורעה בלבבם

Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.

4 תן-להם כפעלם וכרע מעלליהם כמעשה ידיהם תן להם השב גמולם להם

Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them after the operation of their hands. Render to them their recompense,

5 כי לא יבינו אל-פעלת יהוה-- ואל-מעשה ידיו יהרסם ולא יבנם

because they regard not the works of Jehovah, nor the operation of his hands. He will break them down and not build them up.

6 ברוך יהוה כי-שמע קול תחנוני

Blessed be Jehovah, because he has heard the voice of my supplications.

7 יהוה עזי ומגני-- בו בטח לבי ונעזרתי ויעלז לבי ומשירי אהודנו

Jehovah is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I will praise him.

8 יהוה עז-למו ומעוז ישועות משיחו הוא

Jehovah is their strength, and he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

9 הושיעה את-עמך-- וברך את-נחלתך ורעם ונשאם עד-העולם

Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
