1Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call: My rock, be not thou deaf unto me; Lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
1By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, My rock, be not silent to me! Lest Thou be silent to me, And I have been compared With those going down to the pit.
1A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.
1 My cry goes up to you, O Lord, my Rock; do not keep back your answer from me, so that I may not become like those who go down into the underworld.
2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
2Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee, In my lifting up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
2Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court.
2Give ear to the voice of my prayer, when I am crying to you, when my hands are lifted up to your holy place.
3Draw me not away with the wicked, And with the workers of iniquity; That speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts.
3Draw me not with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbours, And evil in their heart.
3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many waters.
3Do not take me away with the sinners and the workers of evil, who say words of peace to their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.
4Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings: Give them after the operation of their hands; Render to them their desert.
4Give to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. According to the work of their hands give to them. Return their deed to them.
4The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.
4Give them the right reward of their acts, and of their evil doings: give them punishment for the works of their hands, let them have their full reward.
5Because they regard not the works of Jehovah, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up.
5For they attend not to the doing of Jehovah, And unto the work of His hands. He throweth them down, And doth not build them up.
5The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.
5Because they have no respect for the works of the Lord, or for the things which his hands have made, they will be broken down and not lifted up by him.
6Blessed be Jehovah, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
6Blessed <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah, For He hath heard the voice of my supplications.
6And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.
6May the Lord be praised, because he has given ear to the voice of my prayer.
7Jehovah is my strength and my shield; My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; And with my song will I praise him.
7Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exulteth, And with my song I thank Him.
7The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:
7The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.
8Jehovah is their strength, And he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
8Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> strength to him, Yea, the strength of the salvation of His anointed <FI>is<Fi> He.
8The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.
8The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king.
9Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: Be their shepherd also, and bear them up for ever.
9Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, And feed them, and carry them to the age!
9The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory.
9Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.
