A Prayer for Help, and Praise for Its Answer.

1 To You, O LORD, I call ; My ¹rock, do not be deaf to me, For if You ²are silent to me, I will become like those who ³go down to the pit. 2 Hear the ⁴voice of my supplications when I cry to You for help, When I ⁵lift up my hands ⁶toward ^aYour holy ⁷sanctuary. 3 ⁸Do not drag me away with the wicked And with those who work iniquity, Who ⁹speak peace with their neighbors, While evil is in their hearts. 4 Requite them ¹⁰according to their work and according to the evil of their practices ; Requite them according to the deeds of their hands ; Repay them their ^brecompense. 5 Because they ¹¹do not regard the works of the LORD Nor the deeds of His hands, He will tear them down and not build them up. 6 Blessed be the LORD, Because He ¹²has heard the voice of my supplication. 7 The LORD is my ¹³strength and my ¹⁴shield ; My heart ¹⁵trusts in Him, and I am helped ; Therefore ¹⁶my heart exults, And with ¹⁷my song I shall thank Him. 8 The LORD is ^ctheir ¹⁸strength, And He is a ^d¹⁹saving defense to His anointed. 9 ²⁰Save Your people and bless ²¹Your inheritance ; Be their ²²shepherd also, and ²³carry them forever .
