Psalms 28

1[ of David.] Unto you will I cry, O Yahuah my rock; be not silent to me: lest, you be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. 2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto you, when I lift up my hands toward your holy oracle. 3Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief in their hearts. 4Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. 5Because they regard not the works of the Yahuah, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. 6Blessed the Yahuah, because he has heard the voice of my supplications. 7The Yahuah my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. 8The Yahuah their strength, and he the saving strength of his anointed. 9Save your people, and bless your inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
