Psalms 27:3-9

³Though castles or tents stand together against me; mine heart shall not dread. Though battle riseth against me; in this thing I shall have hope.

⁴I asked of the Lord one thing; I shall seek this thing; that I dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life. That I see the will of the Lord; and that I visit his temple.

⁵For he hid me in his tabernacle in the day of evils; he defended me in the hid place of his tabernacle. He enhanced me in a stone;

⁶and now he enhanced mine head over mine enemies. I compassed, and offered in his tabernacle a sacrifice of crying out; I shall sing, and I shall say psalm to the Lord.

⁷Lord, hear thou my voice, by which I cried to thee; have thou mercy on me, and hear me.

⁸Mine heart said to thee, My face sought thee; Lord, I shall seek again thy face.

⁹Turn thou not away thy face from me; bow thou not away in wrath from thy servant. Lord, be thou mine helper, forsake thou not me; and, God, mine health, despise thou not me.
