RSV Psalms 28 Chapter
28:1
A Psalm of David. To thee, O LORD, I call;my rock, be not deaf to me, lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like those who go down to the Pit.
28:2
Hear the voice of my supplication, as I cry to thee for help, as I lift up my hands toward thy most holy sanctuary.
28:3
Take me not off with the wicked, with those who are workers of evil, who speak peace with their neighbors, while mischief is in their hearts.
28:4
Requite them according to their work, and according to the evil of their deeds;requite them according to the work of their hands;render them their due reward.
28:5
Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, or the work of his hands, he will break them down and build them up no more.
28:6
Blessed be the LORD! for he has heard the voice of my supplications.
28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield;in him my heart trusts;so I am helped, and my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.
28:8
The LORD is the strength of his people, he is the saving refuge of his anointed.
28:9
O save thy people, and bless thy heritage;be thou their shepherd, and carry them for ever.
