Book 27 : KETUVIM - PSALMS - Chapter 027
27:001
A Psalm of David. HaShem is my light and my salvation; whom
shall I fear? HaShem is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid
27:002
When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even mine
adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell
27:003
Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not
fear; though war should rise up against me, even then will I be confident
27:004
One thing have I asked of HaShem, that will I seek after:
that I may dwell in the house of HaShem all the days of my life, to behold the
graciousness of HaShem, and to visit early in His temple
27:005
For He concealeth me in His pavilion in the day of evil; He
hideth me in the covert of His tent; He lifteth me up upon a rock
27:006
And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round
about me; and I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices with trumpet-sound; I
will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto HaShem
27:007
Hear, O HaShem, when I call with my voice, and be gracious
unto me, and answer me
27:008
In Thy behalf my heart hath said: 'Seek ye My face'; Thy
face, HaShem, will I seek
27:009
Hide not Thy face far from me; put not Thy servant away in
anger; Thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O G-d of my
salvation
27:010
For though my father and my mother have forsaken me,
HaShem will take me up
27:011
Teach me Thy way, O HaShem; and lead me in an even path,
because of them that lie in wait for me
27:012
Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries; for
false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out violence
27:013
If I had not believed to look upon the goodness of HaShem
in the land of the living!-
27:014
Wait on HaShem; be strong, and let thy heart take courage;
yea, wait thou for HaShem
