Psalmorum 28

1 huic David ad te Domine clamabo Deus meus ne sileas a me nequando taceas a me et adsimilabor descendentibus in lacum

By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, My rock, be not silent to me! Lest Thou be silent to me, And I have been compared With those going down to the pit.

2 exaudi vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum

Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee, In my lifting up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

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

Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil 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 to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands give to them. Return their deed to them.

5 quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et in opera manuum eius destrues illos et non aedificabis eos

For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build them up.

6 benedictus Dominus quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae

Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my supplications.

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

Jehovah [is] my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exulteth, And with my song I thank Him.

8 Dominus fortitudo plebis suae et protector salvationum christi sui est

Jehovah [is] strength to him, Yea, the strength of the salvation of His anointed [is] He.

9 salvam fac plebem tuam et benedic hereditati tuae et rege eos et extolle eos usque in aeternum

Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, And feed them, and carry them to the age!
