Psalms 27:7-14 ▼

7 Hear, O YHWH, my voice when I call, and be merciful to me and answer me.

8 You have said to my heart “Seek My face.” Your face, O YHWH, I will seek.

9 Do not hide Your face from me; do not stretch Your servant away in anger! You have been my help—do not leave me and do not forsake me, O God of my salvation.

10 Though my father and my mother have forsaken me, yet YHWH will gather me in.

11 Teach me Your way, O YHWH, and lead me on a level path, on account of my enemies.

12 Do not give me up to the desires of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence.

13 Still I believed to look on the goodness of YHWH in the land of the living.

14 Wait for YHWH; be strong and let your heart be courageous. And wait for YHWH!
