Psalm 28

(A) Thinking

1. Whose poem is this? Author's name or source note

(1) David's poem.

2. What did the poet say he would do? What is God to him? He prayed to God not to shut him up, or what would happen? 1

I demand to tell you, Lord.

My stone.

(3) Don't be silent to me; If you keep your mouth shut, I will be like a dying man.

3. How does the poet call God? 2

Hear the voice of my supplication when I call to you and lift up my hand to your most holy place.

What does the poet ask God not to do? What's going on here? three

Don't get rid of me with the wicked.

They make peace with their neighbors, but their hearts are evil.

5. What is the poet's wish? What's going on here? 4/5

May you treat them according to their actions and their evil deeds. May you treat them according to the work of their hands and give them what they deserve.

(2) Since they do not pay attention to what the LORD has done and what his hands have done, he will destroy them and not build them up.

6. What did the poet say to the LORD? What's going on here? six

Praise the Lord.

Because he listened to my pleading voice.

7. What does the poet say the Lord does for him? What does he get if he trusts him in his heart? So what is in his heart? How to show his joy? seven

The Lord is my strength and my shield.

I am so dependent on him that I have to help.

Therefore, my heart is happy.

I will praise him with a poem.

8. What does the poet say God is to his people and anointed? Ask god what he wants. 8/9

The Lord is the strength of his people and the salvation of his anointed.

Save your people, bless your industry, feed them and support them forever.
