Psalms 28:1-4

1O Lord, I call to you. O my rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. If you remain silent, I will be like those who go into the pit.

2Hear my prayer for mercy when I call to you for help, when I lift my hands toward your most holy place.

3Do not drag me away with wicked people, with troublemakers who speak of peace with their neighbors but have evil in their hearts.

4Pay them back for what they have done, for their evil deeds. Pay them back for what their hands have done, and give them what they deserve.
