| Chapter 28 |
1 | To 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.
|
2 | Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, When I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
|
3 | Don't draw me away with the wicked, With the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.
|
4 | Give 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.
|
5 | Because they don't regard the works of Yahweh, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.
|
6 | Blessed be Yahweh, Because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
|
7 | Yahweh 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.
|
8 | Yahweh is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
|
9 | Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever. Psalm 29 A Psalm by David.
