A Prayer for Help

28 To you, Lord, I cry out!
    My Rock, do not refuse to answer me.[a]
If you remain silent,
    I will become like those who descend into the Pit.[b]
Hear the sound of my supplications when I cry to you for help,
    as I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary.

Do not drag me away with the wicked,
    with those who practice iniquity,
who speak peace to their neighbors
    while harboring evil in their hearts.
