Psalm 28 | O Livro

Salmo de David.

1 Peço-te que me socorras, SENHOR, pois és o rochedo da minha segurança. Não fiques mudo para comigo, mas responde-me, se não, sou capaz de desesperar, de ficar como os que descem ao abismo da morte.

2 Ouve a voz das minhas súplicas quando te invoco e levanto as mãos para o teu lugar santíssimo.

3 Não me castigues juntamente com os pecadores, que estão sempre a falar de paz com os seus amigos, mas têm os corações cheios de maldade.

4 Castiga-os segundo merecem as suas obras, de acordo com a sua malícia; recompensa-os segundo as obras das suas mãos, por todo o mal que praticam.

5 São gente que não se interessa pelo SENHOR, nem pelo que tem feito e criado. Por isso, Deus os derrubará; como casas que foram destruídas, nunca serão reerguidos.

6 Louvado seja o SENHOR, porque ouviu a voz das minhas súplicas.

7 Ele é a minha força, o meu escudo contra todo o perigo; o meu coração confiou nele e fui socorrido. Por isso, salto de alegria; louvarei o Senhor com o meu canto.

8 O SENHOR é a força do seu povo, a força de salvação do seu ungido.

9 Salva o teu povo e abençoa os que te pertencem; apascenta-os como um pastor e guia-os para sempre.

English Standard Version

The Lord Is My Strength and My Shield

1 Of David. To you, O Lord, I call; my rock, be not deaf to me, lest, if you be silent to me, I become like those who go down to the pit.

2 Hear the voice of my pleas for mercy, when I cry to you for help, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary.*

3 Do not drag me off with the wicked, with the workers of evil, who speak peace with their neighbors while evil is in their hearts.

4 Give to them according to their work and according to the evil of their deeds; give to them according to the work of their hands; render them their due reward.

5 Because they do not regard the works of the Lord or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and build them up no more.

6 Blessed be the Lord! For he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy.

7 The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.

8 The Lord is the strength of his people;* he is the saving refuge of his anointed.

9 Oh, save your people and bless your heritage! Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
