28:1 To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit. 2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call 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 the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts. 4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve. 5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them. 6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy. 7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song. 8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed. 9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.

29:1 Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. 2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness. 3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD is heard over many waters. 4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic. 5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox. 7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire. 8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the LORD twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in His temple all cry, “Glory!” 10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever. 11 The LORD gives His people strength; the LORD blesses His people with peace.

30:1 I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me. 2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me. 3 O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit. 4 Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name. 5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning. 6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.” 7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed. 8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy: 9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness? 10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.” 11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
