Psalms 28

1 A Psalm of David. To thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou shouldest be silent to me, I should become like them that go down into the pit.

大衛的詩。 耶和華啊，我要求告你！ 我的磐石啊，不要向我緘默！ 倘若你向我閉口， 我就如將死的人一樣。

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

我呼求你，向你至聖所舉手的時候， 求你垂聽我懇求的聲音！

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

不要把我和惡人並作孽的一同除掉； 他們與鄰舍說和平話，心裏卻是奸惡。

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.

願你按着他們所做的， 並他們所行的惡事待他們。 願你照着他們手所做的待他們， 將他們所應得的報應加給他們。

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.

他們既然不留心耶和華所行的和他手所做的， 他就必毀壞他們，不建立他們。

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

耶和華是應當稱頌的， 因為他聽了我懇求的聲音。

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.

耶和華是我的力量，是我的盾牌； 我心裏倚靠他就得幫助。 所以我心中歡樂， 我必用詩歌頌讚他。

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

耶和華是他百姓的力量， 又是他受膏者得救的保障。

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

求你拯救你的百姓，賜福給你的產業， 牧養他們，扶持他們，直到永遠。
