Psalms 28

Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Switch Version:

¹ Of David. [1] 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. ⓖ

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. ⓗ

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. ⓘ

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. ⓙ

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. ⓚ

⁶ Blessed be the LORD, for he has heard the sound of my pleading. ⓛ

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. ⓝ

⁸ The LORD is the strength of his people; [1] he is a stronghold of salvation for his anointed. ⓐ

⁹ Save your people, bless your possession, shepherd them, and carry them forever. ⓑ
