Psalms

Chapter 28

1 Unto you will I cry, O Jehovah/God my rock;
be not silent to me . . .
lest, if you be silent to me,
I become like those who go down into the pit.

2 Hear the voice of my supplications,
when I cry unto you,
when I lift up my hands toward your holy oracle.

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

4 Give them according to their deeds,
and according to the wickedness of their endeavors.

Give them after the work of their hands;
render to them their desert.

5 Because they regard not the works of Jehovah/God,
nor the operation of his hands,
he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

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

7 Jehovah/God is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusted in him,
and I am helped.

Therefore my heart greatly rejoices;
and with my song will I praise him.

8 Jehovah/God is their strength,
and he is the saving strength of his anointed.

9 Save your people,
and bless your inheritance.

Feed them also, and lift them up for evening.
