A Psalm of DavidH1732. The LORDH3068 is my lightH216 and my salvationH3468; whom shall I fearH3372? the LORDH3068 is the strengthH4581 of my lifeH2416; of whom shall I be afraidH6342?
When the wickedH7489, even mine enemiesH6862 and my foesH341, cameH7126 upon me to eat upH398 my fleshH1320, they stumbledH3782 and fellH5307. {came…: Heb. approached against me}
Though an hostH4264 should encampH2583 against me, my heartH3820 shall not fearH3372: though warH4421 should riseH6965 against me, in this will I be confidentH982.
OneH259 thing have I desiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, that will I seekH1245 after; that I may dwellH3427 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 all the daysH3117 of my lifeH2416, to beholdH2372 the beautyH5278 of the LORDH3068, and to enquireH1239 in his templeH1964. {the beauty: or, the delight}
For in the timeH3117 of troubleH7451 he shall hideH6845 me in his pavilionH5520: in the secretH5643 of his tabernacleH168 shall he hideH5641 me; he shall set me upH7311 upon a rockH6697.
And now shall mine headH7218 be lifted upH7311 above mine enemiesH341 round aboutH5439 me: therefore will I offerH2076 in his tabernacleH168 sacrificesH2077 of joyH8643; I will singH7891, yea, I will sing praisesH2167 unto the LORDH3068. {joy: Heb. shouting}
HearH8085, O LORDH3068, when I cryH7121 with my voiceH6963: have mercyH2603 also upon me, and answerH6030 me.
When thou saidst, SeekH1245 ye my faceH6440; my heartH3820 saidH559 unto thee, Thy faceH6440, LORDH3068, will I seekH1245. {When…: or, My heart said unto thee, Let my face seek thy face, etc}
HideH5641 not thy faceH6440 far from me; putH5186 not thy servantH5650 awayH5186 in angerH639: thou hast been my helpH5833; leaveH5203 me not, neither forsakeH5800 me, O GodH430 of my salvationH3468.
When my fatherH1 and my motherH517 forsakeH5800 me, then the LORDH3068 will take me upH622. {take…: Heb. gather me}
TeachH3384 me thy wayH1870, O LORDH3068, and leadH5148 me in a plainH4334 pathH734, because of mine enemiesH8324. {a plain…: Heb. a way of plainness} {mine…: Heb. those which observe me}
DeliverH5414 me not over unto the willH5315 of mine enemiesH6862: for falseH8267 witnessesH5707 are risen upH6965 against me, and such as breathe outH3307 crueltyH2555.
I had fainted, unlessH3884 I had believedH539 to seeH7200 the goodnessH2898 of the LORDH3068 in the landH776 of the livingH2416.
WaitH6960 on the LORDH3068: be of good courageH2388, and he shall strengthenH553 thine heartH3820: waitH6960, I say, on the LORDH3068.
