27
(28) A Psalm of David.
1 To you, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest you be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.
2 Listen to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to you, when I lift up my hands toward your holy temple.
3 Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors, but evils are in their hearts.
4 Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense to them.
5 Because they have not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, you shall pull them down, and shall not build them up.
6 Blessed be the Lord, for he has listened to the voice of my petition.
7 The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I *Or, confess to him. give praise to him.
8 The Lord is the strength of his people, and the †Gr. defender of the salvation of. saving defender of his anointed.
9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.
