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.
