Psalm 27 KJV Paraphrased.
- Lord You are my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? LORD You are the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
- When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
- Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
- One thing have I desired of You Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in Your house Lord, all the days of my life, to behold Your beauty Lord, and to enquire in Your temple.
- For in the time of trouble You shall hide me in Your pavilion: in the secret of Your tabernacle shall You hide me; You shall set me up upon a rock.
- And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in Your tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto You Lord.
- Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
- When You said, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
- Hide not Your face far from me; put not Your servant away in anger: You have been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
- When my father and my mother forsake me, then You Lord will take me up.
- Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a right path, because of mine enemies.
- Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
- I would have fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
- Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen Your heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.
