== Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 27 ==

<named id="1"/>1 A Psalm of David. HaShem is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? HaShem is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

<named id="2"/>2 When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

<named id="3"/>3 Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war should rise up against me, even then will I be confident.

<named id="4"/>4 One thing have I asked of HaShem, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of HaShem all the days of my life, to behold the graciousness of HaShem, and to visit early in His temple.

<named id="5"/>5 For He concealeth me in His pavilion in the day of evil; He hideth me in the covert of His tent; He lifteth me up upon a rock.

<named id="6"/>6 And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; and I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices with trumpet-sound; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto HaShem.

<named id="7"/>7 Hear, O HaShem, when I call with my voice, and be gracious unto me, and answer me.

<named id="8"/>8 In Thy behalf my heart hath said: 'Seek ye My face'; Thy face, HaShem, will I seek.

<named id="9"/>9 Hide not Thy face far from me; put not Thy servant away in anger; Thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O G-d of my salvation.

<named id="10"/>10 For though my father and my mother have forsaken me, HaShem will take me up.

<named id="11"/>11 Teach me Thy way, O HaShem; and lead me in an even path, because of them that lie in wait for me.

<named id="12"/>12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries; for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out violence.

<named id="13"/>13 If I had not believed to look upon the goodness of HaShem in the land of the living!--

<named id="14"/>14 Wait on HaShem; be strong, and let thy heart take courage; yea, wait thou for HaShem.
