Of David.{HR}Unto thee, O Jehovah, do I call;{HR}O my rock, be not silent to me,{HR}Lest thou be silent to me{HR}And I become like unto those that go down to the pit.
Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry for help, unto thee,{HR}When I lift up my hands towards thy holy oracle.
Take me not away with the wicked and with the doers of iniquity,{HR}Who speak peace with their neighbours and evil is in their hearts.
Give unto them according to their deed{HR}And according to the evil of their works;{HR}According to the work of their hands give thou to them;{HR}Return their recompense unto them.
For they attend not unto the deeds of Jehovah and unto the work of his hands;{HR}He will destroy them and will not build them.
Blessed [be] Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
Jehovah [is] my strength and my shield,{HR}In him hath my heart trusted,{HR}And I have been helped;{HR}My heart also exulteth,{HR}And with my song do I praise him.
Jehovah [is] strength to him,{HR}Yea, a stronghold of the salvation of his anointed [is] he.
Save thy people and bless thine inheritance,{HR}And feed them and lift them up forever.
