Psalms 28

Amplified Bible, 2015 (AMP)

Back to Bible
1 I will give thanks and praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart; And will glorify Your name forevermore.
2 For great is Your lovingkindness and graciousness toward me; And You have rescued my life from the depths of Sheol [from death].
3 O God, arrogant and insolent men have risen up against me; A band of violent men have sought my life, And they have not set You before them.
4 But You, O Lord, are a God [who protects and is] merciful and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness and truth.
5 Turn to me, and be gracious to me; Grant Your strength [Your might and the power to resist temptation] to Your servant, And save the son of Your handmaid.
6 Show me a sign of [Your] goodwill, That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed, Because You, O LORD, helped and comforted me.
7 A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song. His foundation is on the holy mountain.
8 The LORD loves the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob (Israel).
9 Glorious things are spoken of you, O city of God [Jerusalem]. Selah.
