PSAL. XXVIII. A Psalm of David.
Jehovah unto thee I cry, My rock be thou not deaf from me: Lest thou be dumb from me, and I Like them to pit that go should be. verse 2 The voice of my request hear thou For grace when unto thee I cry; When I lift up my hands unto Thine Oracle of Sanctity.
JEhovah unto thee I cry, My rock be thou not deaf from me: Lest thou be dumb from me, and I Like them to pit that go should be. verse 2 The voice of my request hear thou For grace when unto thee I cry; When I lift up my hands unto Thine Oracle of Sanctitie.
verse 3 With ill men draw me not away, With workers of unrighteousness: That peace unto their neighbours say, But in their hearts is wickedness. verse 4 Give thou to them like to their work▪ And like the evil of their deeds; Give them like to their handy-work And render unto them their meeds.
verse 5 Because unto Jehovahs works They did not wise attention yield, Neither unto his handy-work, He will them waste, and not up-build. verse 6 The Lord be blest, for heard hath he The voice of my request for grace: The Lord's my strength, & shield to me, My heart staid on him, helped I was.
