1 Unto thee, O Yahweh, do I cry, O my Rock! do not turn in silence from me, - lest, if thou turn from me in silence, I be like them who go down into the pit.
2 Hear the voice of my supplication, when I cry to thee for help, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy shrine.
3 Do not drag me away - with the lawless, or with the workers of iniquity, - who speak peaceably with their neighbours, but, wrong, is in their heart.
4 Give them, according to their deed, and, according to the wrong of their practices, - According to the work of their own hands, give thou unto them, Bring back their own dealing to themselves.
5 Because they heed not The Deeds of Yahweh, or the Work of his hands, he will pull them down, and not build them.
