1A Psalm of David. 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.2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.3Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.4Give 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.5Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.6Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.7The 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.8The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.9Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
Psalm 28

from Genfer Bibelgesellschaft1Von David. Zu dir, HERR, rufe ich; mein Fels, wende dich nicht schweigend ab von mir, damit ich nicht denen gleich werde, die in die Grube hinabfahren, wenn du dich verstummend von mir abwendest! (Ps 19:15; Ps 42:10; Ps 57:3; Ps 66:17; Ps 142:6; Ps 143:7)2Höre die Stimme meines Flehens, wenn ich zu dir rufe, wenn ich meine Hände aufhebe zum Sprachort deines Heiligtums. (2Ch 6:29)3Lass mich nicht weggerafft werden mit den Gottlosen und mit den Übeltätern, die friedlich reden mit ihren Nächsten und doch Böses im Sinn haben! (Ps 26:9; Ps 55:22; Ps 62:5; Jer 9:8; Jas 3:5; 1Jo 3:18)4Gib ihnen nach ihrem Tun und nach der Bosheit ihrer Handlungen; gib ihnen nach den Werken ihrer Hände, vergilt ihnen, wie sie es verdient haben! (Pr 5:22; Ob 1:15; 2Ti 4:14; Re 18:6)5Denn sie achten nicht auf die Taten des HERRN, noch auf das Werk seiner Hände; er möge sie zerstören und nicht bauen! (Ps 52:7; Ps 106:7; Ps 106:13; Pr 29:1; Isa 5:12; Ro 1:19)6Gelobt sei der HERR, denn er hat erhört die Stimme meines Flehens! (Ps 66:20; Ps 116:1; Ps 145:1)7Der HERR ist meine Stärke und mein Schild; auf ihn hat mein Herz vertraut, und mir wurde geholfen. Darum frohlockt mein Herz, und ich will ihm danken mit meinem Lied. (Ps 18:2; Ps 18:33; Ps 22:5; Ps 22:20; Ps 33:3; Ps 149:1; Isa 42:10)8Der HERR ist ihre Stärke und die rettende Festung seines Gesalbten. (Ps 20:7; Ps 28:7; Ps 46:2; Isa 12:2)9Rette dein Volk und segne dein Erbe; und weide und trage sie bis in Ewigkeit! (De 9:26; 1Ch 11:2; Ps 23:2; Ps 78:71; Isa 40:11; Eze 34:31; Mic 7:14; Re 7:17)
1To you, Lord, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I shall be like those who go down to the pit.2Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands towards your Most Holy Place.3Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbours but harbour malice in their hearts.4Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work; repay them for what their hands have done and bring back on them what they deserve.5Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord and what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again.6Praise be to the Lord, for he has heard my cry for mercy.7The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.8The Lord is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.9Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them for ever.
