Psalm 28

- A Psalm of David

Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my
rock; be not silent to me: lest,

if thou be silent to me, I become
like them that go down into the pit.

Hear the voice of my supplications,
when I cry unto thee, when I lift

up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

Draw me not away with the wicked, and
with the workers of iniquity, which

speak peace to their neighbours,
but mischief is in their hearts.

Give them according to their
deeds, and according to the

wickedness of their endeavours:

Give them after the works of their
hands, render to them, their desert.

not the works of the Lord, nor the
operation of his hands, he shall

destroy them, and not build them up.

Blessed be the Lord, because he hath
heard the voice of my supplications.

and with my song will I praise him.

The Lord is their strength, and he is
the saving strength of his anointed.

Save thy people, and bless
thine inheritance: feed them

also, and lift them up for ever.
