Psalms 27

A Psalm of Fearless Trust in God.

A Psalm of David.

1The LordH3068 is my 1lightH216 and my 2salvationH3468; WhomH4310 shall I fearH3372? The LordH3068 is the 34defenseH4581 of my lifeH2425; 5WhomH4310 shall I dreadH6342?2When evildoersH7489 cameH7126 upon me to 6devourH398 my fleshH1320, My adversariesH6862 and my enemiesH340, they 7stumbledH3782 and fellH5307.3ThoughH518 a 8hostH4264 encampH2583 againstH5921 me, My heartH3820 will not fearH3372; ThoughH518 warH4421 ariseH6965 againstH5921 me, In spite of thisH2088 I 9shall be 10confidentH982.

411OneH259 thingH259 I have askedH7592 from the LordH3068, that I shall seekH1245: That I may 12dwellH3427 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 allH3605 the daysH3117 of my lifeH2425, To beholdH2372 13the 14beautyH5278 of the LordH3068 And to 1516meditateH1239 in His templeH1964.5For in the 17dayH3117 of troubleH7463 He will 18concealH6845 me in His 19tabernacleH5520; In the secretH5643 placeH5643 of His tentH168 He will 20hideH5641 me; He will 21liftH7311 me up on a rockH6697.6And nowH6258 22my headH7218 will be liftedH7311 up aboveH5921 my enemiesH340 aroundH5439 me, And I will offerH2076 in His tentH168 23sacrificesH2077 24with shoutsH8643 of joyH8643; I will 25singH7891, yes, I will singH2167 praisesH2167 to the LordH3068.

726HearH8085, O LordH3068, when I cryH7121 with my voiceH6963, And be graciousH2603 to me and 27answerH6030 me.8When You said, “28SeekH1245 My faceH6440,” my heartH3820 saidH559 to You, “Your faceH6440, O LordH3068, 29I shall seekH1245.”930Do not hideH5641 Your faceH6440 from me, Do not turnH5186 Your servantH5650 awayH5186 in 31angerH639; You have beenH1961 32my helpH5833; 33Do not abandonH5203 me norH408 34forsakeH5800 me, O GodH430 of my salvationH3468!1035For my fatherH1 and 36my motherH517 have forsakenH5800 me, But 37the LordH3068 will takeH622 me up.

1138TeachH3384 me Your wayH1870, O LordH3068, And leadH5148 me in a 39levelH4334 pathH734 BecauseH4616 of 40my foesH7796.12Do not deliverH5414 me over to the 4142desireH5315 of my adversariesH6862, For 43falseH8267 witnessesH5707 have risenH6965 against me, And such as 44breatheH3307 out violenceH2555.1345I would have despaired unlessH3884 I had believedH539 that I would seeH7200 the 46goodnessH2898 of the LordH3068 In the 47landH776 of the livingH2416.1448WaitH6960 for the LordH3068; Be 49strongH2388 and let your heartH3820 takeH553 courageH553; Yes, waitH6960 for the LordH3068.
