1
{[A Psalm] of David.} Unto thee, Jehovah, do I call; my rock, be not silent unto me, lest, [if] thou keep silence toward me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.
3
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, and mischief is in their heart.
4
Give them according to their doing, and according to the wickedness of their deeds; give them after the work of their hands, render to them their desert.
5
For they regard not the deeds of Jehovah, nor the work of his hands: he will destroy them, and not build them up.
6
Blessed be Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7
Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.

Psalm 28:1-7 Meaning and Commentary
INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 28
\\<<[A Psalm] of David>>\\. This psalm, Aben Ezra says, David either composed himself, or one of the singers for him; the former seems most likely; and it might be made by him when he was persecuted by Saul, or when delivered from him; or at least when he had faith and hope that he should be delivered: the psalm consists of two parts, petitions and thanksgivings.
