Psalm 28

Prayer for Help and Thanksgiving for It

Of David.
¹ To you, O Lord, I call;
   my rock, do not refuse to hear me,
for if you are silent to me,
   I shall be like those who go down to the Pit.
² Hear the voice of my supplication,
   as I cry to you for help,
as I lift up my hands
   towards your most holy sanctuary.^*

⁶ Blessed be the Lord,
   for he has heard the sound of my pleadings.
⁷ The Lord is my strength and my shield;
   in him my heart trusts;
so I am helped, and my heart exults,
   and with my song I give thanks to him.

⁸ The Lord is the strength of his people;
   he is the saving refuge of his anointed.
⁹ O save your people, and bless your heritage;
   be their shepherd, and carry them for ever.
