KJV

King James Version

¹Unto 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. ²Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. ³Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts. ⁴Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. ⁵Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up. ⁶Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. ⁷The 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 will I praise him. ⁸The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed. ⁹Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.

American Standard Version

¹Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call: My rock, be not thou deaf unto me; Lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit. ²Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, When I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle. ³Draw me not away with the wicked, And with the workers of iniquity; That speak peace with their neighbors, But mischief is in their hearts. ⁴Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings: Give them after the operation of their hands; Render to them their desert. ⁵Because they regard not the works of Jehovah, Nor the operation of his hands, He will break them down and not build them up. ⁶Blessed be Jehovah, Because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. ⁷Jehovah is my strength and my shield; My heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; And with my song will I praise him. ⁸Jehovah is their strength, And he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed. ⁹Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: Be their shepherd also, and bear them up for ever.
