A Psalm of David. |

The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom
shall I fear? The LORD is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread? |
|

When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh,
My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell. |

Though a host encamp against me, My heart will
not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I shall be confident. |

|
| Psalm 27:4 |

One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I
shall 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 meditate in His temple. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 27:5 |

For in the day of trouble He will conceal me
in His tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift
me up on a rock. |
| |

And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies
around me, And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will
sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD. |

When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said
to You, "Your face, O LORD, I shall seek." |
|

Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your
servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me,
O God of my salvation! |
|

|
| Psalm 27:10 |

For my father and my mother have forsaken me,
But the LORD will take me up. |

Teach me Your way, O LORD, And lead me in a
level path Because of my foes. |

Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries,
For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence. |

I would have despaired unless I had believed
that I would see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living. |

take courage; Yes, wait for the LORD. |
