The Bible

Psalm 27

By David.

¹ForeverOne is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? ForeverOne is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

²When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

³Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.

⁴One thing I have asked of ForeverOne, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of ForeverOne all the days of my life, to see ForeverOne's beauty, and to inquire in his temple.

⁵For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

⁶Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to ForeverOne.

⁷Hear, ForeverOne, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

⁸When you said, "Seek my face," my heart said to you, "I will seek your face, ForeverOne." ⁹Don't hide your face from me. Don't put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don't abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.

¹⁰When my father and my mother forsake me, then ForeverOne will take me up.

¹¹Teach me your way, ForeverOne. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.

¹²Don't deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, those who breathe out cruelty.

¹³I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of ForeverOne in the land of the living.

¹⁴Wait for ForeverOne. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for ForeverOne.
