Psalms 28:6-9

28:6 The Lord deserves praise,

for he has heard my plea for mercy!

28:7 The Lord strengthens and protects me;

I trust in him with all my heart.

I am rescued and my heart is full of joy;

I will sing to him in gratitude.

28:8 The Lord strengthens his people;

he protects and delivers his chosen king.

28:9 Deliver your people!

Empower the nation that belongs to you!

Care for them like a shepherd and carry them in your arms at all times!
