The Lord is my strength
1
BY DAVID. To You, O YHWH, I call, || My rock, do not be silent to me! Lest You are silent to me, || And I have been compared || With those going down to the pit.
2
Hear the voice of my supplications, || In my crying to You, || In my lifting up my hands toward your holy oracle.
3
Do not draw me with the wicked, || And with workers of iniquity, || Speaking peace with their neighbors, || And evil in their heart.
4
Give to them according to their acting, || And according to the evil of their doings. Give to them according to the work of their hands. Return their deed to them.
5
For they do not attend to the doing of YHWH, || And to the work of His hands. He throws them down, || And does not build them up.
6
Blessed [is] YHWH, || For He has heard the voice of my supplications.
7
YHWH [is] my strength, and my shield, || In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exults, || And I thank Him with my song.
8
YHWH [is] strength to him, || Indeed, the strength of the salvation of His anointed [is] He.
9
Save Your people, and bless Your inheritance, || And feed them, and carry them for all time!
