1. Lord, I call to You;my rock, do not be deaf to me. If You remain silent to me,I will be like those going down to the Pit.
2. Listen to the sound of my pleadingwhen I cry to You for help,when I lift up my handstoward Your holy sanctuary.
3. Do not drag me away with the wicked,with the evildoers,who speak in friendly ways with their neighborswhile malice is in their hearts.
4. Repay them according to what they have done —according to the evil of their deeds.Repay them according to the work of their hands;give them back what they deserve.
