28:1  A Psalm of David. To you I call, O Lord, My rock, do not be deaf to me, For if You are silent to me, I will become like those who go down to the pit (grave).
28:2  Hear the voice of my supplication (specific requests, humble entreaties) as I cry to You for help, As I lift up my hands and heart toward Your innermost sanctuary (Holy of Holies).
28:3  Do not drag me away with the wicked And with those who do evil, Who speak peace with their neighbors, While malice and mischief are in their hearts.
28:4  Repay them according to their work and according to the evil of their practices; Repay them according to the deeds of their hands; Repay them what they deserve.
28:5  Because they have no regard for the works of the Lord Nor the deeds of His hands, He will tear them down and not rebuild them.
28:6  Blessed be the Lord, Because He has heard the voice of my supplication.
28:7  The Lord is my strength and my [impenetrable] shield; My heart trusts [with unwavering confidence] in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I shall thank Him and praise Him.
28:8  The Lord is their [unyielding] strength, And He is the fortress of salvation to His anointed.
28:9  Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; Be their shepherd also, and carry them forever.
