Orthodox Jewish Bible 1 (Of Dovid) Unto Thee will I cry, Hashem my Tzur; do not turn a deaf ear to me: lest, if Thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. 2 Shema (hear) kol (voice) of my supplications, when I cry unto Thee, when I lift up my hands toward Thy Devir Kodesh (Innermost Sanctuary, Kodesh HaKodashim). 3 Draw me not away with the resha'im, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak shalom to their neighbors, but malice is in their hearts. 4 Give to them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavors; give them after the work of their hands; render to them their gemul (deserts). 5 Because they regard not the Pe’ulot Hashem, nor the Ma'aseh of His hands, He shall tear them down, and not build them up. 6 Baruch Hashem, because He hath heard the kol (voice) of my supplications. 7 Hashem is my strength and my mogen; my lev trusts in Him, and I am helped; therefore my lev greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I thank Him. 8 Hashem is their oz (strength), and He is the Ma'oz Yeshu'ot (saving refuge) of His Moshiach. 9 Save Thy people, and bless Thine nachalah; shepherd them also, and carry them ad olam.
