Psalms 27:1
The LORD is my light and my
salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the defense of my
life;
Whom shall I dread?
Psalms 27:2
When evildoers came upon
me to devour my flesh,
My adversaries and my
enemies, they stumbled and fell.
Psalms 27:3
Though a host encamp
against me,
My heart will not fear;
Though war arise against
me,
In spite of this I
shall be confident.
Psalms 27:4
One thing I have asked
from the LORD, that I shall 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 meditate in His
temple.
Psalms 27:5
For in the day of trouble
He will conceal me in His tabernacle;
In the secret place of His
tent He will hide me;
He will lift me up on a
rock.
Psalms 27:6
And now my head will be
lifted up above my enemies around me,
And I will offer in His
tent sacrifices with shouts of joy;
I will sing, yes, I will
sing praises to the LORD.
Psalms 27:7
Hear, O LORD, when I cry
with my voice,
And be gracious to me and
answer me.
Psalms 27:8
When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said to
You,
"Your face, O LORD, I
shall seek."
Psalms 27:9
Do not hide Your face from
me,
Do not turn Your servant
away in anger;
You have been my help;
Do not abandon me nor
forsake me,
O God of my salvation!
Psalms 27:10
For my father and my
mother have forsaken me,
But the LORD will take me
up.
Psalms 27:11
Teach me Your way, O LORD,
And lead me in a level
path
Because of my foes.
Psalms 27:12
Do not deliver me over to
the desire of my adversaries,
For false witnesses have
risen against me,
And such as breathe out
violence.
Psalms 27:13
I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the
goodness of the LORD
In the land of the living.
Psalms 27:14
Wait for the LORD;
Be strong and let your
heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the LORD.
