King James Version of the Bible

Book of Psalms

Chapter 28

28:1

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.

28:2

Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

28:3

Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

28:4

Give 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.

28:5

Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

28:6

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

28:7

The 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.

28:8

The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.

28:9

Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
