28:1 Of David. Lord, I call to you; my rock, do not be deaf to me. If you remain silent to me, I will be like those going down to the Pit.
28:2 Listen to the sound of my pleading when I cry to you for help, when I lift up my hands toward your holy sanctuary.
28:3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with the evildoers, who speak in friendly ways with their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
28:4 Repay them according to what they have done— according to the evil of their deeds. Repay them according to the work of their hands; give them back what they deserve.
28:5 Because they do not consider what the Lord has done or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and not rebuild them.
28:6 Blessed be the Lord, for he has heard the sound of my pleading.
28:7 The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart celebrates, and I give thanks to him with my song.
28:8 The Lord is the strength of his people; he is a stronghold of salvation for his anointed.
28:9 Save your people, bless your possession, shepherd them, and carry them forever.
