Retribution DPS relies heavily on priority. First off always keep up inquisition then use crusader's strike and continue to build up 3 holy power (use your judgement and holy wrath when crusader's strike isn't up). Whenever divine purpose procs and you're about to run out of inquisition use it to get a full 30 seconds. The true rotation is Inquisition, Crusader's Strike, Exorcism (if it procs), Templar's Verdict, Judgement, then Holy Wrath. With that you should pull at least 10k dps. To burst make sure inquisition is at least above 20 seconds and you have full holy power to use zealotry. Pop wings then your rotation should turn into Hammer of Wrath, Crusader's Strike, Templar's Verdict. Remember to use any of your trinkets you might have. You should burst at least 15k with that.
