4
One
thing
have I desired of the L
ORD
, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house
of the L
ORD
all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the L
ORD
, 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
L
ORD
.
7
Hear, O L
ORD
,
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, L
ORD
, 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 L
ORD
will take me up.
11
Teach me thy way, O L
ORD
, 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 L
ORD
in the land of the
living.
14
Wait on the L
ORD
: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on
the L
ORD
.
CHAPTER 28
Unto thee will I cry, O L
ORD
my rock; be not silent to me: lest,
if
thou be silent to me, I become
like them that go down into the pit.
2
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward
thy holy oracle.
3
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace
to their neighbours, but mischief
is
in their hearts.
4
Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours:
give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
5
Because they regard not the works of the L
ORD
, nor the operation of his hands, he shall
destroy them, and not build them up.
6
Blessed
be
the L
ORD
, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7
The L
ORD
is
my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore
my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
8
The L
ORD
is
their strength, and he
is
the saving strength of his anointed.
