New King James VersionHolman Christian Standard Bible
1[i]A Psalm[/i] of David. To You I will cry, O LORD my Rock: Do not be silent to me, Lest, if You are silent to me, I become like those who go down to the pit.1Davidic. LORD, I call to You; my rock, do not be deaf to me. If You remain silent to me, I will be like those going down to the Pit.
2Hear the voice of my supplications When I cry to You, When I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.2Listen to the sound of my pleading when I cry to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
3Do not take me away with the wicked And with the workers of iniquity, Who speak peace to their neighbors, But evil is in their hearts.3Do not drag me away with the wicked, with the evildoers, who speak in friendly ways with their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
4Give them according to their deeds, And according to the wickedness of their endeavors; Give them according to the work of their hands; Render to them what they deserve.4Repay them according to what they have done-- according to the evil of their deeds. Repay them according to the work of their hands; give them back what they deserve.
5Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, Nor the operation of His hands, He shall destroy them And not build them up.5Because they do not consider what the LORD has done or the work of His hands, He will tear them down and not rebuild them.
6Blessed be the LORD, Because He has heard the voice of my supplications!6May the LORD be praised, for He has heard the sound of my pleading.
7The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him.7The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I praise Him with my song.
8The LORD is their strength, And He is the saving refuge of His anointed.8The LORD is the strength of His people; He is a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
9Save Your people, And bless Your inheritance; Shepherd them also, And bear them up forever.9Save Your people, bless Your possession, shepherd them, and carry them forever.
