Psalm 28:1-3
Contemporary English Version

(By David.)

A Prayer for Help

1 Only you, Lord,
    are a mighty rock![a]
Don't refuse to help me
    when I pray.
If you don't answer me,
    I will soon be dead.
2 Please listen to my prayer
    and my cry for help,
as I lift my hands
    toward your holy temple.

3 Don't drag me away, Lord,
    with those cruel people,
who speak kind words,
    while planning trouble.
