Dee 28 Psalm

En Psalm fonn Doft.

Ekj woa to die roope, O Herr Gott; Mien Groota Steen, sie nijch Doof to mie, sest wan du stel best woa ekj soona senne dee fejlikjt woat met soone dee rauf gone no dee Kul.

Hea dee Stem fonn mien Jebäd enn mien schriehe to die, wan ekj miene Henj opphäw to daut Wuat fonn diene Heilijchkjeit.

Nem mie nijch wajch met dee Beese, oda met soone dee Gottloosijchkjeit eewe; dee fonn Fräd raede met aeare Nobasch, oba Beeset es enn äa Hoat.

Jef an no äa Doone, no daut Beeset daut see aungone; soo aus enn äare Henj äare Oabeit es, soo jef an.

Wiels see jaewe kjeene Oobacht to däm Herr Gott siene Woakje, un to dee Oabeit fonn siene Henj; Hee woat dän fenijchte, un woat dän nijch oppbuehe.

Jesäajent es dee Herr Gott, wiels hee haft dee Stem fonn mien Jebäd jeheat.

Dee Herr Gott es mien Krauft un mien Schilt, mien Hoat Toofetruehe es enn am, doaromm freit sikj mien Hoat butamote, un ekj woa am Dank jäwe met mien Jesank.

Dee Herr Gott es Macht to an, un hee es dee Fastinj fonn sien Ennjesaulwda siene Radunk.

Rad dien Folkj, en doo dien Oawgoot säajne; un jef daen Äte, un häw dän fa emma nehejcht.

Psalm 28

Of David.

To you, Lord, I call;
    you are my Rock,
    do not turn a deaf ear(A) to me.
For if you remain silent,(B)
    I will be like those who go down to the pit.(C)
Hear my cry for mercy(D)
    as I call to you for help,
as I lift up my hands(E)
    toward your Most Holy Place.(F)

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.(G)
Repay them for their deeds
    and for their evil work;
repay them for what their hands have done(H)
    and bring back on them what they deserve.(I)

Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord
    and what his hands have done,(J)
he will tear them down
    and never build them up again.

Praise be to the Lord,(K)
    for he has heard my cry for mercy.(L)
The Lord is my strength(M) and my shield;
    my heart trusts(N) in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,(O)
    and with my song I praise him.(P)

The Lord is the strength(Q) of his people,
    a fortress of salvation(R) for his anointed one.(S)
Save your people(T) and bless your inheritance;(U)
    be their shepherd(V) and carry them(W) forever.
