Chapter 28
|
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. |
