1.2 KiB
Yahweh Is My Strength and My Shield
1
To You, O Yahweh, I call; My rock, do not be silent to me, Lest if You are hesitant toward me, I will become like those who go down to the pit.
2
Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to You for help, When I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
3
Do not drag me away with the wicked And with workers of iniquity, Who speak peace with their neighbors, While evil is in their hearts.
4
Give to them according to their work and according to the evil of their actions; Give to them according to the deeds of their hands; Return their dealings upon them.
5
Because they do not regard the works of Yahweh Nor the deeds of His hands, He will tear them down and not build them up.
6
Blessed be Yahweh, Because He has heard the voice of my supplications.
7
Yahweh is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart exults, And with my song I shall thank Him.
8
Yahweh is their strength, And He is a strong defense of salvation to His anointed.
9
Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; Be their shepherd also, and carry them forever.
