Psalm 28

Vulgate

   1 David. Ad te, Domine, clamabo; Deus meus, ne sileas a me. Ne quando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum.
   2 Exaudi vocem deprecationis meae, dum clamo ad te, dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum.
   3 Ne simul trahas me cum peccatoribus et cum operantibus iniquitatem. Qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo, mala autem in cordibus eorum.
   4 Da illis secundum opera eorum et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum. Secundum opus manuum eorum tribue illis, redde retributionem eorum ipsis.
   5 Quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et opus manuum eius, destruet illos et non aedificabit eos.
   6 Benedictus Dominus, quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae;
   7 Dominus adiutor meus et protector meus, in ipso speravit cor meum, et adiutus sum, et exsultavit cor meum, et in cantico meo confitebor ei.
   8 Dominus fortitudo plebi suae, et refugium salvationum christi sui est.
   9 Salvum fac populum tuum et benedic hereditati tuae et pasce eos et extolle illos usque in aeternum.

King James Version

A Psalm of David.

   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.
   2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
   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.
   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.
   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.
   6 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
   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.
   8 The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
   9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
