Psalms 27:7-14

7Hear, Adonai, when I call with my voice, be gracious to me and answer me.

8To You my heart says: “Seek My face.” Your face, Adonai, I seek.

9Do not hide Your face from me. Do not turn Your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not abandon me or forsake me, O God my salvation.

10Though my father and my mother forsake me, Adonai will take me in.

11Teach me Your way, Adonai, and lead me on a level path— because of my enemies.

12Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes. For false witnesses rise up against me, breathing out violence.

13Surely I trust that I will see the goodness of Adonai in the land of the living.

14Wait for Adonai. Be strong, let Your heart take courage, and wait for Adonai.
