Psalm 28
Expanded Bible
A Prayer in Troubled Times
Of David.
28 Lord, my Rock [C providing protection], I ·call out to you for help [pray].
Do not be ·deaf [silent] to me.
If you are silent,
I will be like those ·in the grave [L who go down to the Pit; 16:10].
2 Hear the sound of my ·prayer [supplication],
when I cry out to you for help.
I raise my hands
toward your Most Holy Place [C the place where God made his presence known, the sanctuary].
3 Don’t drag me away with the wicked,
with those who do evil.
They say “Peace” to their neighbors,
but evil is in their hearts.
4 Pay them back for what they have done,
for their evil deeds.
Pay them back for ·what they have done [L the work of their hands];
give them their reward.
5 They don’t understand what the Lord has done
or ·what he has made [L the work of his hands].
So he will ·knock [tear] them down
and not ·lift [L build] them up.
6 ·Praise [L Blessed be] the Lord,
because he heard ·my prayer for help [L the sound of my supplication].
7 The Lord is my strength [Ex. 15:2] and shield.
·I trust [My heart has confidence in] him, and he helps me.
·I am [L My heart is] very happy,
and I ·praise [give thanks to] him with my song.
8 The Lord is powerful;
he ·gives victory [is a saving refuge] to his ·chosen one [anointed].
9 ·Save [L Give victory to] your people
and bless ·those who are your own [L your inheritance].
Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
Salmos 28
Reina Valera Revisada
Plegaria pidiendo ayuda, y alabanza por la respuesta
Salmo de David.
28 A ti clamaré, oh Jehová.
Roca mía, no te desentiendas de mí,
Para que no sea yo, dejándome tú,
Semejante a los que descienden al sepulcro.
2 Oye la voz de mis ruegos cuando clamo a ti,
Cuando alzo mis manos hacia tu santo templo.
3 No me arrebates juntamente con los malos,
Y con los que hacen iniquidad,
Los cuales hablan paz con sus prójimos,
Pero la maldad está en su corazón.
4 Dales conforme a sus obras, y conforme a la perversidad de sus hechos;
Dales su merecido conforme a la obra de sus manos.
5 Por cuanto no consideran las acciones de Jehová,
Ni la obra de sus manos,
Él los derribará, y no los edificará.
6 Bendito sea Jehová,
Que oyó la voz de mis ruegos.
7 Jehová es mi fortaleza y mi escudo;
En él confió mi corazón, y fui socorrido,
Por lo que exulta de gozo mi corazón
Y con mi cántico te alabaré.
8 Jehová es la fortaleza de su pueblo,
Y el refugio salvador de su ungido.
9 Salva a tu pueblo, y bendice a tu heredad;
Y pastoréalos y condúcelos para siempre.
