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 came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear ; though war may rise against me, in this I will be confident.
4 One thing I have desired of the LORD, that will I will 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 inquire in His temple.
5 For in thr time of trouble He shall hide mew in His pavilion ; in the secret place of His tabernacle He sha hide me ; He shall set me high upon a rock.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me ; therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle ; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice ! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When You siad, " Seek My ace, " my heart said to You," Your face, LORD , I will seek. "
9 Do 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.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take care of me.
11 Teach me Your way, O LORD, and lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.
12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries ; for false witnesses have risen against me, such as breathe out violence.
13 I would have last heart, unless I had believed that I would 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 your heart, I say, on the LORD.Psalm 27
