Psalm 28
CSB Parallel NIV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Christian Standard BibleNew International Version
1LORD, I call to you; my rock, do not be deaf to me. If you remain silent to me, I will be like those going down to the Pit.1Of David. To you, LORD, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.
2Listen to the sound of my pleading when I cry to you for help, when I lift up my hands toward your holy sanctuary.2Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
3Do not drag me away with the wicked, with the evildoers, who speak in friendly ways with their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.3Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts.
4Repay them according to what they have done--according to the evil of their deeds. Repay them according to the work of their hands; give them back what they deserve.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 do not consider what the LORD has done or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and not rebuild them.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.
6Blessed be the LORD, for he has heard the sound of my pleading.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 I am helped. Therefore my heart celebrates, and I give thanks to him with my song.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; he is a stronghold of salvation for his anointed.8The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
9Save your people, bless your possession, shepherd them, and carry them forever.9Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.
