GIVE THEM AFTER THE WORK OF THEIR HANDS

PSALM 28

 

UNTO THEE WILL I CRY, 

O LORD MY ROCK; 

BE NOT SILENT TO ME: 

LEST, IF THOU BE SILENT 

TO ME, 

I BECOME LIKE THEM 

THAT GO DOWN 

INTO THE PIT. 

HEAR 

THE VOICE OF MY SUPPLICATIONS, 

WHEN I CRY UNTO THEE, 

WHEN I LIFT UP MY HANDS 

TOWARD THY HOLY ORACLE. 

DRAW ME NOT AWAY WITH THE WICKED, 

AND WITH 

THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY, 

WHICH SPEAK PEACE 

TO THEIR NEIGHBOURS, 

BUT MISCHIEF IS IN 

THEIR HEARTS. 

GIVE THEM ACCORDING 

TO THEIR DEEDS, AND ACCORDING 

TO THE WICKEDNESS 

OF THEIR ENDEAVOR: 

GIVE THEM AFTER 

THE WORK OF THEIR HANDS; 

RENDER TO THEM 

THEIR DESERT. 

BECAUSE THEY REGARD 

NOT THE WORKS OF THE LORD, 

NOR 

THE OPERATION OF HIS HANDS, 

HE SHALL DESTROY THEM, 

AND NOT BUILD THEM UP. 

BLESSED BE THE LORD, 

BECAUSE HE HATH HEARD 

THE VOICE OF MY SUPPLICATIONS. 

THE LORD IS MY 

STRENGTH AND MY SHIELD; 

MY HEART 

TRUSTED IN HIM, 

AND 

I AM HELPED: 

THEREFORE, MY HEART 

GREATLY REJOICETH; 

AND WITH 

MY SONG I WILL 

PRAISE HIM. 

THE LORD IS THEIR STRENGTH, 

AND HE IS THE

SAVING 

STRENGTH OF HIS ANOINTED. 

SAVE THY PEOPLE, 

AND 

BLESS THINE INHERITANCE: 

FEED THEM ALSO, 

AND 

LIFT THEM UP FOR EVER.

 

LOVE
