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. | 1A Psalm of David. Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. |
2Hear the voice of my supplications When I cry to You, When I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary. | 2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. |
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. | 3Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief 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. | 4Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. |
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 regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. |
6Blessed be the LORD, Because He has heard the voice of my supplications! | 6Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. |
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 trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. |
8The LORD is their strength, And He is the saving refuge of His anointed. | 8The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed. |
9Save Your people, And bless Your inheritance; Shepherd them also, And bear them up forever. | 9Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever. |
