1 BY DAVID. To You, O YHWH, I call, || My rock, do not be silent to me! Lest You are silent to me, || And I have been compared || With those going down to the pit. 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. Of 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.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications, || In my crying to You, || In my lifting up my hands toward your holy oracle. 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. Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
3 Do not draw me with the wicked, || And with workers of iniquity, || Speaking peace with their neighbors, || And evil in their heart. 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. Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts.
4 Give to them according to their acting, || And according to the evil of their doings. Give to them according to the work of their hands. Return their deed to them. 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. Repay 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.
5 For they do not attend to the doing of YHWH, || And to the work of His hands. He throws them down, || And does not build them up. 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. Because 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.
6 Blessed [is] YHWH, || For He has heard the voice of my supplications. Blessed be the LORD! For he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy. Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy.
7 YHWH [is] my strength, and my shield, || In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exults, || And I thank Him with my song. 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. The 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.
8 YHWH [is] strength to him, || Indeed, the strength of the salvation of His anointed [is] He. The LORD is the strength of his people; he is the saving refuge of his anointed. The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
9 Save Your people, and bless Your inheritance, || And feed them, and carry them for all time! Oh, save your people and bless your heritage! Be their shepherd and carry them forever. Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.
