Psalms, Chapter 28
1. "A Psalm of David." Unto you will I cry, O LORD 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. Do not draw me 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 actions: give them after the work of their hands; repay them as they deserve.
5. Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, or the working of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
6. Blessed be the LORD, because he has heard the voice of my supplications.
7. The LORD 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. The LORD 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 ever.
