- 0. [A Psalm] of David.
- 1. Jehovah is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?
- 2. When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, [Even] mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
- 3. Though a host should encamp against me, My heart shall not fear: Though war should rise against me, Even then will I be confident.
- 4. One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of Jehovah, And to inquire in his temple.
- 5. For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock.
- 6. And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me. And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Jehovah.
- 7. Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice: Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
- 8. [When thou saidst], Seek ye my face; My heart said unto thee, Thy face, Jehovah, will I seek.
- 9. Hide not thy face from me; Put not thy servant away in anger: Thou hast been my help; Cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
- 10. When my father and my mother forsake me, Then Jehovah will take me up.
- 11. Teach me thy way, O Jehovah; And lead me in a plain path, Because of mine enemies.
- 12. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries: For false witnesses are risen up against me, And such as breathe out cruelty.
- 13. [I had fainted], unless I had believed to see the goodness of Jehovah In the land of the living.
- 14. Wait for Jehovah: Be strong, and let thy heart take courage; Yea, wait thou for Jehovah.
