Psalms 28:2-9

²Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee, In my lifting up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

³Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil in their heart.

⁴Give to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands give to them. Return their deed to them.

⁵For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build them up.

⁶Blessed is Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my supplications.

⁷Jehovah is my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exulteth, And with my song I thank Him.

⁸Jehovah is strength to him, Yea, the strength of the salvation of His anointed is He.

⁹Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, And feed them, and carry them to the age!
