[1]

By David.

Yahweh is my light and my salvation.
Whom shall I fear?
Yahweh is the strength of my life.
Of whom shall I be afraid?
[2] When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh,
even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
[3] Though an army should encamp against me,
my heart shall not fear.
Though war should rise against me,
even then I will be confident.
[4] One thing I have asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after:
that I may dwell in Yahweh’s house all the days of my life,
to see Yahweh’s beauty,
and to inquire in his temple.
[5] For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion.
In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me.
He will lift me up on a rock.
[6] Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me.
I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent.
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Yahweh.
[7] Hear, Yahweh, when I cry with my voice.
Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
[8] When you said, “Seek my face,”
my heart said to you, “I will seek your face, Yahweh.”
[9] Don’t hide your face from me.
Don’t put your servant away in anger.
You have been my help.
Don’t abandon me,
neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
[10] When my father and my mother forsake me,
then Yahweh will take me up.
[11] Teach me your way, Yahweh.
Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.
[12] Don’t deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries,
for false witnesses have risen up against me,
such as breathe out cruelty.
[13] I am still confident of this:
I will see the goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living.
[14] Wait for Yahweh.
Be strong, and let your heart take courage.
Yes, wait for Yahweh.

[2] When the wicked,H7489(HiphPtc) [even] mine enemiesH6862 and my foes,H341(QalActPtc) cameH7126(QalInf) upon me to eat upH398(QalInf) my flesh,H1320 they stumbledH3782(QalPerf) and fell.H5307(QalPerf) [3] Though an hostH4264 should encampH2583(QalImpf) against me, my heartH3820 shall not fear:H3372(QalImpf) though warH4421 should riseH6965(QalImpf) against me, in this [will] I [be] confident.H982(QalActPtc) [4] OneH259 [thing] have I desiredH7592(QalPerf) of the Lord,H3068 that will I seekH1245(PielImpf) after; that I may dwellH3427(QalInf) in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 all the daysH3117 of my life,H2416 to beholdH2372(QalInf) the beautyH5278 of the Lord,H3068 and to enquireH1239(PielInf) in his temple.H1964 [5] For in the timeH3117 of troubleH7451 he shall hideH6845(QalImpf) me in his pavilion:H5520 in the secretH5643 of his tabernacleH168 shall he hideH5641(HiphImpf) me; he shall set me upH7311(PoleImpf) upon a rock.H6697 [6] And now shall mine headH7218 be lifted upH7311(QalImpf) above mine enemiesH341(QalActPtc) round aboutH5439 me: therefore will I offerH2076(QalImpf) in his tabernacleH168 sacrificesH2077 of joy;H8643 I will sing,H7891(QalImpf) yea, I will sing praisesH2167(PielImpf) unto the Lord.H3068 [7] Hear,H8085(QalImpv) O Lord,H3068 [when] I cryH7121(QalImpf) with my voice:H6963 have mercyH2603(QalImpv) also upon me, and answerH6030(QalImpv) me. [8] [When thou saidst], SeekH1245(PielImpv) ye my face;H6440 my heartH3820 saidH559(QalPerf) unto thee, Thy face,H6440 Lord,H3068 will I seek.H1245(PielImpf) [9] HideH5641(HiphImpf) not thy faceH6440 [far] from me; putH5186 not thy servantH5650 awayH5186(HiphImpf) in anger:H639 thou hast been my help;H5833 leaveH5203(QalImpf) me not, neither forsakeH5800(QalImpf) me, O GodH430 of my salvation.H3468 [10] When my fatherH1 and my motherH517 forsakeH5800(QalPerf) me, then the LordH3068 will take me up.H622(QalImpf) [11] TeachH3384(HiphImpv) me thy way,H1870 O Lord,H3068 and leadH5148(QalImpv) me in a plainH4334 path,H734 because of mine enemies.H8324(QalActPtc) [12] DeliverH5414(QalImpf) me not over unto the willH5315 of mine enemies:H6862 for falseH8267 witnessesH5707 are risen upH6965(QalPerf) against me, and such as breathe outH3307 cruelty.H2555 [13] [I had fainted], unlessH3884 I had believedH539(HiphPerf) to seeH7200(QalInf) the goodnessH2898 of the LordH3068 in the landH776 of the living.H2416 [14] WaitH6960(PielImpv) on the Lord:H3068 be of good courage,H2388(QalImpv) and he shall strengthenH553(HiphImpf) thine heart:H3820 wait,H6960(PielImpv) I say, on the Lord.H3068
