28 By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, My rock, be not silent to me! Lest Thou be silent to me, And I have been compared With those going down to the pit.

Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee, In my lifting up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil in their heart.

Give to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands give to them. Return their deed to them.

For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build them up.

Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my supplications.

Jehovah [is] my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exulteth, And with my song I thank Him.

Jehovah [is] strength to him, Yea, the strength of the salvation of His anointed [is] He.

Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, And feed them, and carry them to the age!

29 A Psalm of David. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.

Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.

The voice of Jehovah [is] on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah [is] on many waters.

The voice of Jehovah [is] with power, The voice of Jehovah [is] with majesty,

The voice of Jehovah [is] shivering cedars, Yea, Jehovah shivers the cedars of Lebanon.

And He causeth them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,

The voice of Jehovah is hewing fiery flames,

The voice of Jehovah paineth a wilderness, Jehovah paineth the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of Jehovah paineth the oaks, And maketh bare the forests, And in His temple every one saith, `Glory.'

10 Jehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king -- to the age,

11 Jehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth His people with peace!

30 A Psalm. -- A song of the dedication of the house of David. I exalt Thee, O Jehovah, For Thou hast drawn me up, and hast not let mine enemies rejoice over me.

Jehovah my God, I have cried to Thee, And Thou dost heal me.

Jehovah, Thou hast brought up from Sheol my soul, Thou hast kept me alive, From going down [to] the pit.

Sing praise to Jehovah, ye His saints, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness,

For -- a moment [is] in His anger, Life [is] in His good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing.

And I -- I have said in mine ease, `I am not moved -- to the age.

O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength to remain for my mountain,' Thou hast hidden Thy face -- I have been troubled.

Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, And unto Jehovah I make supplication.

`What gain [is] in my blood? In my going down unto corruption? Doth dust thank Thee? doth it declare Thy truth?

10 Hear, O Jehovah, and favour me, O Jehovah, be a helper to me.'

11 Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me [with] joy.

12 So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!
