Psalms 27

¹The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?

²When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh,

³Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear:

⁴One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after;

⁵For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion:

⁶And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me:

⁷Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice:

⁸When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee,

⁹Hide not thy face far from me;

¹⁰When my father and my mother forsake me,

¹¹Teach me thy way, O Lord,

¹²Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies:

¹³I had fainted, unless I had believed

¹⁴Wait on the Lord:
