Psalm 27
A Psalm of David.
| 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, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. |
| 3 | Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. |
| 4 | One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; 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 of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. |
| 6 | And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. |
| 7 | Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. |
| 8 | When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. |
| 9 | Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. |
| 10 | When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. |
| 11 | Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. |
| 12 | Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. |
| 13 | I had fainted, unless I had believed to 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 thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. |
