< Psalmorum 28 >

1 huic David ad te Domine clamabo Deus meus ne sileas a me nequando taceas a me et adsimilabor descendentibus in lacum
David’s. Unto thee, O Yahweh, do I cry, O my Rock! do not turn in silence from me, —lest, if thou turn from me in silence, I be like them who go down into the pit.
2 exaudi vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum
Hear the voice of my supplication, when I cry to thee for help, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy shrine.
3 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
Do not drag me away—with the lawless, or with the workers of iniquity, —who speak peaceably with their neighbours, but, wrong, is in their heart.
4 da illis secundum opera ipsorum et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis redde retributionem eorum ipsis
Give them, according to their deed, and, according to the wrong of their practices, —According to the work of their own hands, give thou unto them, Bring back their own dealing to themselves.
5 quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et in opera manuum eius destrues illos et non aedificabis eos
Because they heed not The Deeds of Yahweh, or the Work of his hands, he will pull them down, and not build them.
6 benedictus Dominus quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae
Blessed be Yahweh, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplication.
7 Dominus adiutor meus et protector meus in ipso speravit cor meum et adiutus sum et refloruit caro mea et ex voluntate mea confitebor ei
Yahweh, is my strength and my shield, In him, hath trusted my heart, and I have found help, —Therefore hath my heart danced for joy, and, with my song, do I praise him.
8 Dominus fortitudo plebis suae et protector salvationum christi sui est
Yahweh, is strength to his people, —And, the all-saving refuge of his Anointed One, is he!
9 salvam fac plebem tuam et benedic hereditati tuae et rege eos et extolle eos usque in aeternum
Oh save thy people, and bless thine inheritance, Tend them also, and carry them, Unto times age-abiding.
