1. Unto thee will I cry, O יְהוָ֥ה my rock; be not silent to me: lest, thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

2. Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

3. Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief in their hearts.

4. Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.

5. Because they regard not the works of יְהוָ֥ה, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

6. Blessed יְהוָ֥ה, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.

7. יְהוָ֥ה my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

8. יְהוָ֥ה their strength, and he the saving strength of his anointed.

9. Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
