Psalms 28

NIV

NLT

1 To you, LORD, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.
1 I pray to you, O LORD, my rock. Do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you are silent, I might as well give up and die.
2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
2 Listen to my prayer for mercy as I cry out to you for help, as I lift my hands toward your holy sanctuary.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked— with those who do evil— those who speak friendly words to their neighbors while planning evil in their hearts.
4 Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work; repay them for what their hands have done and bring back on them what they deserve.
4 Give them the punishment they so richly deserve! Measure it out in proportion to their wickedness. Pay them back for all their evil deeds! Give them a taste of what they have done to others.
5 Because they have no regard for the deeds of the LORDand what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again.
5 They care nothing for what the LORD has done or for what his hands have made. So he will tear them down, and they will never be rebuilt!
6 Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy.
6 Praise the LORD ! For he has heard my cry for mercy.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
7 The LORD is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.
8 The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
8 The LORD gives his people strength. He is a safe fortress for his anointed king.
9 Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.
9 Save your people! Bless Israel, your special possession. Lead them like a shepherd, and carry them in your arms forever.
