Psalm 27
|
|
| 27:1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the
strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? |
(27:1-14) "The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?....."
Grizzlies maybe.
|
| 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 the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may
dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty
of the LORD, 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 the LORD. |
|
| 27:7
Hear, O LORD, 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,
LORD, 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 God of my salvation. |
|
| 27:10
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. |
|
| 27:11
Teach me thy way, O LORD, 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 the LORD in
the land of the living. |
|
| 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart:
wait, I say, on the LORD.
