1 A Psalm of David himself. To you, Lord, I will cry out. My God, do not be silent toward me.For if you remain silent toward me, I will become like those who descend into the pit.
2 Hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication, when I pray to you,when I lift up my hands toward your holy temple.
3 Do not draw me away together with sinners;and let me not perish with those who work iniquity,who speak peacefully to their neighbor, yet evils are in their hearts.
4 Give to them according to their works and according to the wickedness of their inventions.Assign to them according to the works of their hands.Repay them with their own retribution.
5 Since they have not understood the works of the Lord and the works of his hands,you will destroy them, and you will not build them up.
