1 By David. The L‑rd is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The L‑rd is the strength of my life — whom shall I dread?

2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh, my oppressors and my foes, it was they who stumbled and fell.

3 Should an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; should war rise against me, in this I trust.

4 One thing I have asked of the L‑rd, this I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the L‑rd all the days of my life, to behold the pleasantness of the L‑rd and to visit His Sanctuary.

5 For He will hide me in His shelter on the day of adversity; He will conceal me in the hidden place of His tent; He will lift me up upon a rock.

6 And now my head will be raised above my enemies around me, and I will offer in His tent sacrifices with joyous shouts; I will sing and chant praises to the L‑rd.

7 L‑rd, hear my voice when I call; be gracious to me and answer me.

8 On Your behalf my heart says, “Seek My face”; Your face, L‑rd, I will seek.

9 Do not hide Your face from me; do not turn Your servant away in anger. You have been my help; do not abandon me nor forsake me, G‑d of my salvation.

10 Though my father and my mother have forsaken me, the L‑rd will take me in.

11 L‑rd, teach me Your way, and lead me on a straight path because of those who lie in wait for me.

12 Do not deliver me to the will of my oppressors, for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe violence.

13 Had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the L‑rd in the land of the living!

14 Hope in the L‑rd; be strong and let your heart take courage, and hope in the L‑rd.
