< Psalms 27 >

1 Of David - Yahweh - [is] light my and salvation my from whom? will I be afraid Yahweh [is] [the] refuge of life my from whom? will I be in dread. 2 When drew near on me - evil-doers to devour flesh my opponents my and enemies my to me they they stumbled and they fell. 3 Though it will encamp on me - a camp not it will fear heart my though it will arise on me warfare in this I [will be] trusting. 4 One [thing] - I have asked from with Yahweh it I will seek to dwell I in [the] house of Yahweh all [the] days of life my to look on [the] kindness of Yahweh and to inquire in temple his. 5 For he will conceal me - in refuge his in a day of trouble he will hide me in [the] hiding place of tent his on a rock he will raise up me. 6 And now it will rise head my above enemies my around me and I will sacrifice in tent his sacrifices of a shout of joy I will sing and I will sing praises to Yahweh. 7 Hear O Yahweh voice my I call out and show favor to me and answer me. 8 Of you - it has said heart my seek face my face your O Yahweh I will seek. 9 May not you hide face your - from me may not you turn aside in anger servant your help my you have been may not you abandon me and may not you forsake me O God of salvation my. 10 For father my and mother my they have forsaken me and Yahweh he will receive me. 11 Teach me O Yahweh way your and lead me in a path of level ground on account of enemies my. 12 May not you give me in [the] desire of opponents my for they have arisen on me witnesses of falsehood and a witness of violence. 13 If not I had believed to look on [the] goodness of Yahweh in [the] land of living [people]. 14 Wait to Yahweh be strong so may it show strength heart your and wait to Yahweh.
