A Psalm of David ¹⁷³² . # The LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ is my light ²¹⁶ and my salvation ³⁴⁶⁸ ; whom shall I fear ^{3372 , 8799} ? the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ is the strength ⁴⁵⁸¹ of my life ²⁴¹⁶ ; of whom shall I be afraid ^{6342 , 8799} ?

When the wicked ^{7489 , 8688} , even mine enemies ⁶⁸⁶² and my foes ^{341 , 8802} , came ^{7126 , 8800} upon me to eat up ^{398 , 8800} my flesh ¹³²⁰ , they stumbled ^{3782 , 8804} and fell ^{5307 , 8804} . [came...: Heb. approached against me]

Though an host ⁴²⁶⁴ should encamp ^{2583 , 8799} against me, my heart ³⁸²⁰ shall not fear ^{3372 , 8799} : though war ⁴⁴²¹ should rise ^{6965 , 8799} against me, in this will I be confident ^{982 , 8802} .

One ²⁵⁹ thing have I desired ^{7592 , 8804} of the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , that will I seek ^{1245 , 8762} after; that I may dwell ^{3427 , 8800} in the house ¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ all the days ³¹¹⁷ of my life ²⁴¹⁶ , to behold ^{2372 , 8800} the beauty ⁵²⁷⁸ of the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , and to enquire ^{1239 , 8763} in his temple ¹⁹⁶⁴ . [the beauty: or, the delight]

For in the time ³¹¹⁷ of trouble ⁷⁴⁵¹ he shall hide ^{6845 , 8799} me in his pavilion ⁵⁵²⁰ : in the secret ⁵⁶⁴³ of his tabernacle ¹⁶⁸ shall he hide ^{5641 , 8686} me; he shall set me up ^{7311 , 8787} upon a rock ⁶⁶⁹⁷ .

And now shall mine head ⁷²¹⁸ be lifted up ^{7311 , 8799} above mine enemies ^{341 , 8802} round about ⁵⁴³⁹ me: therefore will I offer ^{2076 , 8799} in his tabernacle ¹⁶⁸ sacrifices ²⁰⁷⁷ of joy ⁸⁶⁴³ ; I will sing ^{7891 , 8799} , yea, I will sing praises ^{2167 , 8762} unto the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ . [joy: Heb. shouting]

Hear ^{8085 , 8798} , O LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , when I cry ^{7121 , 8799} with my voice ⁶⁹⁶³ : have mercy ^{2603 , 8798} also upon me, and answer ^{6030 , 8798} me.

When thou saidst , Seek ^{1245 , 8761} ye my face ⁶⁴⁴⁰ ; my heart ³⁸²⁰ said ^{559 , 8804} unto thee, Thy face ⁶⁴⁴⁰ , LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , will I seek ^{1245 , 8762} . [When...: or, My heart said unto thee, Let my face seek thy face, etc]

Hide ^{5641 , 8686} not thy face ⁶⁴⁴⁰ far from me; put ^{5186 , 0} not thy servant ⁵⁶⁵⁰ away ^{5186 , 8686} in anger ⁶³⁹ : thou hast been my help ⁵⁸³³ ; leave ^{5203 , 8799} me not, neither forsake ^{5800 , 8799} me, O God ⁴³⁰ of my salvation ³⁴⁶⁸ .

Teach ^{3384 , 8685} me thy way ¹⁸⁷⁰ , O LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , and lead ^{5148 , 8798} me in a plain ⁴³³⁴ path ⁷³⁴ , because of mine enemies ^{8324 , 8802} . [a plain...: Heb. a way of plainness] [mine...: Heb. those which observe me]

Deliver ^{5414 , 8799} me not over unto the will ⁵³¹⁵ of mine enemies ⁶⁸⁶² : for false ⁸²⁶⁷ witnesses ⁵⁷⁰⁷ are risen up ^{6965 , 8804} against me, and such as breathe out ³³⁰⁷ cruelty ²⁵⁵⁵ .

I had fainted , unless ³⁸⁸⁴ I had believed ^{539 , 8689} to see ^{7200 , 8800} the goodness ²⁸⁹⁸ of the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ in the land ⁷⁷⁶ of the living ²⁴¹⁶ .

Wait ^{6960 , 8761} on the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ : be of good courage ^{2388 , 8798} , and he shall strengthen ^{553 , 8686} thine heart ³⁸²⁰ : wait ^{6960 , 8761} , I say, on the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ .
