|  | 27:1 | Yahweh is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? | 
|  | 27:2 | When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. | 
|  | 27:3 | Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. | 
|  | 27:4 | One thing have I desired of Yahweh, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Yahweh, and to enquire in his temple. | 
|  | 27:5 | For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. | 
|  | 27:6 | And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Yahweh. | 
|  | 27:7 | Hear, O Yahweh, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. | 
|  | 27:8 | When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Yahweh, will I seek. | 
|  | 27:9 | Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O Elohim of my salvation. | 
|  | 27:10 | When my father and my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will take me up. | 
|  | 27:11 | Teach me thy way, O Yahweh, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. | 
|  | 27:12 | Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. | 
|  | 27:13 | I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living. | 
|  | 27:14 | Wait on Yahweh: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on Yahweh. |
