AFV2020 - Psalms - 27

27:1  A Psalm of David.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?

27:2  When the wicked, my enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

27:3  Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not be afraid; though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.

27:4  One thing I have desired from the LORD, that I will seek after: 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,

27:5  For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion, in the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me upon a rock.

27:6  And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies round about me; therefore I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy in His tabernacle. I will sing; yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

27:7  Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice; and be gracious unto me and answer me.

27:8  When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said to You, "Your face, O LORD, will I seek."

27:9  Hide not Your face from me. Turn not Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

27:10  Though my father and my mother forsake me, the LORD will take me up.

27:11  Teach me Your way, O LORD, and lead me in a level path because of my enemies.

27:12  Deliver me not over to the will of my enemies, for false witnesses have risen up against me, and he that breathes out violence.

27:13  I would have fainted unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

27:14  Wait for the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall make your heart strong; yea, wait, I say, wait on the LORD.
