| Voice of the Lord in the Storm. Psalm 27(v26) | RSV Contents | notes| 27 | Revised Standard Version | Passage | Biblia Hebraica |
| 1 | The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? | Psalm of Praise. Psalm 27(v26) | יְהוָה אֹורִי וְיִשְׁעִי מִמִּי אִירָא יְהוָה מָעֹוז־חַיַּי מִמִּי אֶפְחָד׃ |
| 2 | When evildoers assail me, uttering slanders against me, my adversaries and foes, they shall stumble and fall. | בִּקְרֹב עָלַי מְרֵעִים לֶאֱכֹל אֶת־בְּשָׂרִי צָרַי וְאֹיְבַי לִי הֵמָּה כָשְׁלוּ וְנָפָלוּ׃ | |
| 3 | Though a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident. | אִם־תַּחֲנֶה עָלַי מַחֲנֶה לֹא־יִירָא לִבִּי אִם־תָּקוּם עָלַי מִלְחָמָה בְּזֹאת אֲנִי בֹוטֵחַ׃ | |
| 4 | One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple. | אַחַת שָׁאַלְתִּי מֵאֵת־יְהוָה אֹותָהּ אֲבַקֵּשׁ שִׁבְתִּי בְּבֵית־יְהוָה כָּל־יְמֵי חַיַּי לַחֲזֹות בְּנֹעַם־יְהוָה וּלְבַקֵּר בְּהֵיכָלֹו׃ | |
| 5 | For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent, he will set me high upon a rock. | כִּי יִצְפְּנֵנִי בְּסֻכֹּה בְּיֹום רָעָה יַסְתִּרֵנִי בְּסֵתֶר אָהֳלֹו בְּצוּר יְרֹומְמֵנִי׃ | |
| 6 | And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies round about me; and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the LORD. | וְעַתָּה יָרוּם רֹאשִׁי עַל אֹיְבַי סְבִיבֹותַי וְאֶזְבְּחָה בְאָהֳלֹו זִבְחֵי תְרוּעָה אָשִׁירָה וַאֲזַמְּרָה לַיהוָה׃ | |
| 7 | Hear, O LORD, when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me! | שְׁמַע־יְהוָה קֹולִי אֶקְרָא וְחָנֵּנִי וַעֲנֵנִי׃ | |
| 8 | Thou hast said, "Seek ye my face." My heart says to thee, "Thy face, LORD, do I seek." | לְךָ׃ אָמַר לִבִּי בַּקְּשׁוּ פָנָי אֶת־פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָה אֲבַקֵּשׁ׃ | |
| 9 | Hide not thy face from me. Turn not thy servant away in anger, | אַל־תַּסְתֵּר פָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי אַל־תַּט־בְּאַף עַבְדֶּךָ עֶזְרָתִי הָיִיתָ | |
| 10 | For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the LORD will take me up. | כִּי־אָבִי וְאִמִּי עֲזָבוּנִי וַיהוָה יַאַסְפֵנִי׃ | |
| 11 | Teach me thy way, O LORD; and lead me on a level path because of my enemies. | הֹורֵנִי יְהוָה דַּרְךֶּךָ וּנְחֵנִי בְּאֹרַח מִישֹׁור לְמַעַן שֹׁורְרָי׃ | |
| 12 | Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence. | אַל־תִּתְּנֵנִי בְּנֶפֶשׁ צָרָי כִּי קָמוּ־בִי עֵדֵי־שֶׁקֶר וִיפֵחַ חָמָס׃ | |
| 13 | I believe that I shall see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living! | לוּלֵא הֶאֱמַנְתִּי לִרְאֹות בְּטוּב־יְהוָה בְּאֶרֶץ חַיִּים׃ | |
| 14 | Wait for the Lord; Be strong, and let your heart take courage; yea, wait for the Lord! | קַוֵּה אֶל־יְהוָה חֲזַק וְיַאֲמֵץ לִבֶּךָ וְקַוֵּה אֶל־יְהוָה׃ | |
