Psalms 27 : 1 - 14
Chapter 27
1 | The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? |
2 | When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell. |
3 | Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this I will be confident. |
4 | One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple. |
5 | For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. |
6 | And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD. |
7 | Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. |
8 | When You said, "Seek My face," My heart said to You, "Your face, LORD, I will seek." |
9 | Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. |
10 | When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the LORD will take care of me. |
11 | Teach me Your way, O LORD, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. |
12 | Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence. |
13 | I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living. |
14 | Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD! |
