28:1 Of David. To you I call, O LORD my Rock; do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who have gone down to the pit.
28:2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
28:3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts.
28:4 Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work; repay them for what their hands have done and bring back upon them what they deserve.
28:5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD and what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again.
28:6 Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy.
28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.
28:8 The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
28:9 Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.
