The argument of the .xxviii. psalme. ¶ The prophete turning his face towardes the arke of God, desireth that his prayers may be hearde, that God would succour him, and not suffer him to be oppressed of the wicked to whom vengeaunce is due: he thanketh and prayseth God for his deliuerie. A   


1   Vnto thee I crye O God my note strength, make not as though thou were deafe at me: note lest if thou holdest thy peace, I become like them that go downe into the graue.


2   Heare the voyce of my humble petitions when I crye vnto thee: when I holde vp my handes towarde thy holy place where thy arke is.


3   Take me not away with the vngodlye, and with the workers of iniquitie: whiche speake of peace to their neighbours, but mischiefe is in their heartes.


4   Rewarde them accordyng to their deedes: and according to the wickednes of their owne inuentions.


5   Recompence them after the worke of their handes: pay them home that they haue deserued.


6   For they geue not their minde to vnderstande the doynges of God and the worke of his handes: [therefore] he wyll breake them downe, and not buylde them vp. B   


7   Blessed be God: for he hath hearde the voyce of mine humble petitions.


8   God is my strength and my shielde, my heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart skippeth for ioy, and in my song I wyll note prayse hym.


9   God is note their strength: and the strength note that saueth his annoynted.


10   O saue thy people, and geue thy blessing vnto thine inheritaunce: feede them and exalt them for euermore.
