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.
