Psalms 28

A prayer for help, and praise for its answer.

A Psalm of David.

¹To you, Yahweh, I call. My rock, don`t be deaf to me; Lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

²Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, When I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.

³Don`t draw me away with the wicked, With the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.

⁴Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

⁵Because they don`t regard the works of Yahweh, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.

⁶Blessed be Yahweh, Because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

⁷Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

⁸Yahweh is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

⁹Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
