Psalms 28

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 [Of David] To you, Yahweh, I cry, my rock, do not be deaf to me! If you stay silent I shall be like thosewho sink into oblivion.	1 David. Ad te, Domine, clamabo; Deus meus, ne sileas a me. Ne quando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum.
2 Hear the sound of my prayer when I cal upon you, when I raise my hands, Yahweh, towards your Holyof Holies.	2 Exaudi vocem deprecationis meae, dum clamo ad te, dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with evil-doers, who talk to their partners of peace withtreachery in their hearts.	3 Ne simul trahas me cum peccatoribus et cum operantibus iniquitatem. Qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo, mala autem in cordibus eorum.
4 Repay them as their deeds deserve, as befits their treacherous actions; as befits their handiworkrepay them, let their deserts fall back on themselves.	4 Da illis secundum opera eorum et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum. Secundum opus manuum eorum tribue illis, redde retributionem eorum ipsis.
5 They do not comprehend the deeds of Yahweh, the work of his hands. May he pul them down and notrebuild them!	5 Quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini et opus manuum eius, destruet illos et non aedificabit eos.
6 Blessed be Yahweh for he hears the sound of my prayer.	6 Benedictus Dominus, quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae;
7 Yahweh is my strength and my shield, in him my heart trusts. I have been helped; my body hasrecovered its vigour, with all my heart I thank him.	7 Dominus adiutor meus et protector meus, in ipso speravit cor meum, et adiutus sum, et exsultavit cor meum, et in cantico meo confitebor ei.
8 Yahweh is the strength of his people, a safe refuge for his anointed.	8 Dominus fortitudo plebi suae, et refugium salvationum christi sui est.
9 Save your people, bless your heritage, shepherd them and carry them for ever!	9 Salvum fac populum tuum et benedic hereditati tuae et pasce eos et extolle illos usque in aeternum.
