Psalms 28 King James Version

¹ 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.

² Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee,
When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

³ 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.

⁴ Give 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.

⁵ Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands,
He shall destroy them, and not build them up.

⁶ Blessed be the LORD,
Because he hath 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 rejoiceth; 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 thy people, and bless thine inheritance:
Feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
