Psalm 28:2-4
Living Bible

2 Lord, I lift my hands to heaven[a] and implore your help. Oh, listen to my cry.

3 Don’t punish me with all the wicked ones who speak so sweetly to their neighbors while planning to murder them. 4 Give them the punishment they so richly deserve! Measure it out to them in proportion to their wickedness; pay them back for all their evil deeds.

    as I call to you for help,
as I lift up my hands(B)
    toward your Most Holy Place.(C)

3 Do not drag me away with the wicked,
    with those who do evil,
who speak cordially with their neighbors
    but harbor malice in their hearts.(D)
4 Repay them for their deeds
    and for their evil work;
repay them for what their hands have done(E)
    and bring back on them what they deserve.(F)
