Psalms Chapter 28
Psalm 28 (27)

my Rock, do not be deaf to my call!

1 To you, O Lord, I call; my rock, be not deaf to me.
For if you heed me not, I shall go down to the pit like the rest.

2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your innermost sanctuary.

3 Drag me not away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who mouth words of peace while they sow mischief and confusion.

4 Punish them for their evil designs and wicked deeds; give them their due reward.

5 Since they have no regard for the works of the Lord, he will tear them down and never let them rise again.

6 Blessed be the Lord! He has heard my cry for help.

7 The Lord is my strength, my shield, my heart was sure of him, I have been helped and my heart exults, with my song I give him thanks.

8 The Lord is the strength of his people, the saving refuge of his anointed.

9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance, be their shepherd and carry them forever.
