- 1. <Of David.><br>
The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me? - 2. When evil-doers, even my haters, came on me to put an end to me, they were broken and put to shame.
- 3. Even if an army came against me with its tents, my heart would have no fear: if war was made on me, my faith would not be moved.
- 4. One prayer have I made to the Lord, and this is my heart's desire; that I may have a place in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, looking on his glory, and getting wisdom in his Temple.
- 5. For in the time of trouble he will keep me safe in his tent: in the secret place of his tent he will keep me from men's eyes; high on a rock he will put me.
- 6. And now my head will be lifted up higher than my haters who are round me: because of this I will make offerings of joy in his tent; I will make a song, truly I will make a song of praise to the Lord.
- 7. O Lord, let the voice of my cry come to your ears: have mercy on me, and give me an answer.
- 8. When you said, Make search for my face, my heart said to you, For your face will I make my search.
- 9. Let not your face be covered from me; do not put away your servant in wrath; you have been my help: do not give me up or take your support from me, O God of my salvation.
- 10. When my father and my mother are turned away from me, then the Lord will be my support.
- 11. Make your way clear to me, O Lord, guiding me by the right way, because of my haters.
- 12. Do not give me into their hands, because false witnesses have come out against me, and men breathing destruction.
- 13. I had almost given up my hope of seeing the blessing of the Lord in the land of the living.
- 14. Let your hope be in the Lord: take heart and be strong; yes, let your hope be in the Lord.
