Psalm 28 - Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895 Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895
Psalm 28

¹ Unto thee, O LORD, will I call; My rock, be not thou deaf unto me: Lest, if thou be silent unto 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 thy holy oracle.

³ Draw me not away with the wicked, And with the workers of iniquity; Which speak peace with their neighbours, But mischief is in their hearts

⁴ Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings: Give them after the operation of their hands; Render to them their desert.

⁵ Because they regard not the works of the LORD, Nor the operation of his hands, He shall break them down and not build them up.

⁶ Blessed be the LORD, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.

⁷ The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; And with my song will praise him.

⁸ The LORD is their strength, And he is a strong hold of salvation to his anointed.

⁹ Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: Feed them also, and bear them up for ever.
