The Lord is my strength

1
To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
2
Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.(a)
3
Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
4
Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
5
Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
6
Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
8
The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
9
Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.

(a)28:2 Or Your innermost sanctuary or Your Most Holy Place

The Lord is my strength

1
To you, LORD, I call. My rock, don’t be deaf to me, lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.
2
Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, when I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
3
Don’t draw me away with the wicked, with the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.
4
Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.
5
Because they don’t respect the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.
6
Blessed be the LORD, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
7
The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.
8
The LORD is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
9
Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
