28:1Unto thee, Jehovah, do I call; my rock, be not silent unto me, lest, if thou keep silence toward me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
28:2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.
28:3Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, and mischief is in their heart.
28:4Give them according to their doing, and according to the wickedness of their deeds; give them after the work of their hands, render to them their desert.
28:5For they regard not the deeds of Jehovah, nor the work of his hands: he will destroy them, and not build them up.
28:6Blessed be Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
28:7Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.
28:8Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.
28:9Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance; and feed them, and lift them up for ever.
29:0A Psalm of David.
29:1Give unto Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty ones, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;
29:2Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; worship Jehovah in holy splendour.
29:3The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: the *God of glory thundereth, -- Jehovah upon great waters.
29:4The voice of Jehovah is powerful; the voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
29:5The voice of Jehovah breaketh cedars; yea, Jehovah breaketh the cedars of Lebanon:
29:6And he maketh them to skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young buffalo.
29:7The voice of Jehovah cleaveth out flames of fire.
29:8The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
29:9The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, and layeth bare the forests; and in his temple doth every one say, Glory!
29:10Jehovah sitteth upon the flood; yea, Jehovah sitteth as king for ever.
29:11Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
30:0A Psalm of David: dedication-song of the house.
30:1I will extol thee, Jehovah; for thou hast delivered me, and hast not made mine enemies to rejoice over me.
30:2Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
30:3Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol, thou hast quickened me from among those that go down to the pit.
30:4Sing psalms unto Jehovah, ye saints of his, and give thanks in remembrance of his holiness.
30:5For a moment is passed in his anger, a life in his favour; at even weeping cometh for the night, and at morn there is rejoicing.
30:6As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.
30:7Jehovah, by thy favour thou hadst made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled.
30:8I called to thee, Jehovah, and unto the Lord did I make supplication:
30:9What profit is there in my blood, in my going down to the pit? shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
30:10Hear, O Jehovah, and be gracious unto me; Jehovah, be my helper.
30:11Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
30:12That my glory may sing psalms of thee, and not be silent. Jehovah my God, I will praise thee for ever.
