Psalm 28:3-9

New King James Version

³ Do not ^[a]take me away with the wicked
And with the workers of iniquity,
^(A)Who speak peace to their neighbors,
But evil is in their hearts.
^4 (B)Give them according to their deeds,
And according to the wickedness of their endeavors;
Give them according to the work of their hands;
Render to them what they deserve.
⁵ Because ^(C)they do not regard the works of the Lord,
Nor the operation of His hands,
He shall destroy them
And not build them up.

⁶ Blessed be the Lord,
Because He has heard the voice of my supplications!
⁷ The Lord is ^(D)my strength and my shield;
My heart ^(E)trusted in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
And with my song I will praise Him.

⁸ The Lord is ^[b]their strength,
And He is the ^(F)saving refuge of His ^[c]anointed.
⁹ Save Your people,
And bless ^(G)Your inheritance;
Shepherd them also,
^(H)And bear them up forever.
