Psalms 27

American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)

2 Ref When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, `Even' mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

3 Ref Though a host should encamp against me, My heart shall not fear: Though war should rise against me, Even then will I be confident.

4 Ref One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of Jehovah, And to inquire in his temple.

2 Ref When evil-doers, even my haters, came on me to put an end to me, they were broken and put to shame.

3 Ref Even if an army came against me with its tents, my heart would have no fear: if war was made on me, my faith would not be moved.

4 Ref One prayer have I made to the Lord, and this is my heart's desire; that I may have a place in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, looking on his glory, and getting wisdom in his Temple.
