NASB Bible

Psalms 27

A Psalm of David.

1

The LORD is my  alight and my  bsalvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the  1 cdefense of my life;  dWhom shall I dread?

2

When evildoers came upon me to  adevour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they  bstumbled and fell.

3

Though a  ahost encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I  1shall be  bconfident.

4

 aOne thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may  bdwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold  cthe  1beauty of the LORD And to  2 dmeditate in His temple.

5

For in the  aday of trouble He will  bconceal me in His  1tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will  chide me; He will  dlift me up on a rock.

6

And now  amy head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, And I will offer in His tent  bsacrifices  1with shouts of joy; I will  csing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

7

 aHear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and  banswer me.

8

When You said,aSeek My face," my heart said to You, "Your face, O LORD,  bI shall seek."

9

 aDo not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in  banger; You have been  cmy help;  dDo not abandon me nor  eforsake me, O God of my salvation!

10

 1For my father and  amy mother have forsaken me, But  bthe LORD will take me up.

11

 aTeach me Your way, O LORD, And lead me in a  blevel path Because of  1my foes.

12

Do not deliver me over to the  1 adesire of my adversaries, For  bfalse witnesses have risen against me, And such as  cbreathe out violence.

13

 1I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the  agoodness of the LORD In the  bland of the living.

14

 aWait for the LORD; Be  bstrong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the LORD.
