Psalm 28

Good News Translation GNT

1 O Lord, my defender, I call to you. Listen to my cry! If you do not answer me, I will be among those who go down to the world of the dead.

2 Hear me when I cry to you for help, when I lift my hands toward your holy Temple.

3 Do not condemn me with the wicked, with those who do evil - those whose words are friendly, but who have hatred in their hearts.

4 Punish them for what they have done, for the evil they have committed. Punish them for all their deeds; give them what they deserve!

5 They take no notice of what the Lord has done or of what he has made; so he will punish them and destroy them forever.

6 Give praise to the Lord; he has heard my cry for help.

7 The Lord protects and defends me; I trust in him. He gives me help and makes me glad; I praise him with joyful songs.

8 The Lord protects his people; he defends and saves his chosen king.

9 Save your people, Lord, and bless those who are yours. Be their shepherd, and take care of them forever.

1 <<By David.>> To you, Yahweh, I call. My rock, don't be deaf to me; Lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.

2 Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, When I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.

3 Don't draw me away with the wicked, With the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.

4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.

5 Because they don't regard the works of Yahweh, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, Because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

7 Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

8 Yahweh is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
