28:1  Of David. To you I call out, O Lord, my Rock; do not turn a deaf ear to my cry. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.
28:2  Hear my voice in supplication as I plead for your help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
28:3  Do not snatch me away with the wicked, with those whose deeds are evil, who talk of peace to their neighbors while treachery is in their hearts.
28:4  Repay them as their deeds deserve in accordance with the evil they inflict; repay them for the works of their hands and heap upon them what they justly deserve.
28:5  Since they have paid no heed to the deeds of the Lord or to the works of his hands, he will strike them down and refuse to restore them.
28:6  Blessed be the Lord, for he has heard my cry of supplication.
28:7  The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart places its trust in him. He has helped me, and I exult; then with my song I praise him.
28:8  The Lord is the strength of his people, the refuge where his anointed one finds salvation.
28:9  Save your people and bless your heritage; be their shepherd and sustain them forever.
