By David.

[1] To you, Yahweh, 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 Yahweh,
nor the operation of his hands,
he will break them down and not build them up. [6] Blessed be Yahweh,
because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
[7] Yahweh 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] Yahweh 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.
King James Version

A Psalm of David. H1732

[1] Unto thee will I cry, H7121 (QalImpf) O Lord H3068 my rock; H6697 be not silent H2814 (QalImpf) to me:§
Lest, if thou be silent H2790 (QalImpf) to me, I become H4911 (NiphPerf) like them that go down H3381 (QalActPtc) into the pit. H953
[2] Hear H8085 (QalImpv) the voice H6963 of my supplications, H8469 when I cry H7768 (PielInf) unto thee,
When I lift up H5375 (QalInf) my hands H3027 toward thy holy H6944 oracle. H1687§
[3] Draw me not away H4900 (QalImpf) with the wicked, H7563 and with the workers H6466 (QalActPtc) of iniquity, H205
Which speak H1696 (QalActPtc) peace H7965 to their neighbours, H7453 but mischief H7451 is in their hearts. H3824
[4] Give H5414 (QalImpv) them according to their deeds, H6467
And according to the wickedness H7455 of their endeavours: H4611
Give H5414 (QalImpv) them after the work H4639 of their hands; H3027
Render H7725 (HiphImpv) to them their desert. H1576
[5] Because they regard H995 (QalImpf) not the works H6468 of the Lord, H3068 nor the operation H4639 of his hands, H3027
He shall destroy H2040 (QalImpf) them, and not build them up. H1129 (QalImpf)
[6] Blessed H1288 (QalPasPtc) be the Lord, H3068
Because he hath heard H8085 (QalPerf) the voice H6963 of my supplications. H8469
[7] The Lord H3068 is my strength H5797 and my shield; H4043 my heart H3820 trusted H982 (QalPerf) in him, and I am helped: H5826 (NiphPerf)
Therefore my heart H3820 greatly rejoiceth; H5937 (QalImpf) and with my song H7892 will I praise H3034 (HiphImpf) him.
[8] The Lord H3068 is their strength,§ H5797
And he is the saving H3444 strength H4581§ of his anointed. H4899
[9] Save H3467 (HiphImpv) thy people, H5971 and bless H1288 (PielImpv) thine inheritance: H5159
Feed H7462 (QalImpv)§ them also, and lift them up H5375 (PielImpv) for ever. H5769
