Psalms 27:7-14

7Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

8When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”

9Do 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.

10When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the Lord will take care of me.

11Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.

12Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence.

13I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.

14Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
