MLV(i)
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 evildoers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell. 3 Though an army should encamp against me, my heart will not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
4 One thing I have asked of Jehovah, that I will 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 Because in the day of trouble he will hide me in his shelter. He will hide me in the covering of his tabernacle He will lift me up upon a rock.
6 And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies all around me. And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Jehovah.
7 Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also upon me and answer me. 8 My heart said to you, I have sought your face. O Jehovah, I will seek your face.
9 Do not hide your face from me. Do not put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Cast me not off, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. 10 Because my father and my mother forsake me, then Jehovah will take me up.
11 Teach me your way, O Jehovah and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies. 12 Deliver me not over to the will of my adversaries. Because false witnesses have risen up against me and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I believe that I will see the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living. 14 Wait for Jehovah. Be strong and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Jehovah.
