A Psalm of David.
Unto thee, O Jehovah, 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.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee,
When I lift up my hands {Or, toward the innermost place of thy sanctuary}toward thy holy oracle.
Draw me not away with the wicked,
And with the workers of iniquity;
That speak peace with their neighbors,
But mischief is in their hearts.
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.
Because they regard not the works of Jehovah,
Nor the operation of his hands,
He will break them down and not build them up.
Blessed be Jehovah,
Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
Jehovah 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 I praise him.
Jehovah is their strength,
And he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance:
Be their shepherd also, and bear them up for ever.
Querverweise zu Psalm 28,6 Ps 28,6
Blessed be Jehovah;For he hath showed me his marvellous lovingkindness in a strong city.
As for me, I said in my {Or, alarm}haste,I am cut off from before thine eyes:Nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications,When I cried unto thee.
But verily God hath heard;He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
Blessed be God,Who hath not turned away my prayer,Nor his lovingkindness from me.
For Jehovah heareth the needy,And despiseth not his prisoners.
Let heaven and earth praise him,The seas, and everything that moveth therein.
Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble,And he saveth them out of their distresses.
He sendeth his word, and healeth them,And delivereth them from their {Hebrew: pits.}destructions.
Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness,And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving,And declare his works with singing.
I love Jehovah, because he hearethMy voice and my supplications.
Because he hath inclined his ear unto me,Therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
Out of my distress I called upon {Hebrew: Jah.}Jehovah: {Hebrew: Jah.}Jehovah answered me and set me in a large place.
