[ Read](/kjv/psalms/27)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/27)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/27) Audio

 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?

 2 When the wicked, *even* mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.*

 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.

 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.*

 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.

 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.*

 7 Hear, O LORD, *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, LORD, will I seek.*

 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.

 10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.*

 11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.**

 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.

 13 *I had fainted*, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

 14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
