Context of Psalms 28:6
4Punish them for their sins. Give back to them what they deserve! Yes, punish them! That is the fair thing to do. 5They do not want to understand the things that the Lord has done, or the things that he has made. The Lord will punish them, and he will remove them for ever. We should praise the Lord! He has been kind to me, when I called to him for help. 7The Lord makes me strong. He keeps me safe like a shield. I trust in him completely, and he has helped me. I am very happy, and I will thank him with my songs. 8The Lord makes his people strong. He protects the king that he has chosen. The Lord keeps him safe.
