Psalms 27
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
1 Ref <Of David.> The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me?
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.
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 Ref By David. Jehovah `is' my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? Jehovah `is' the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
2 Ref When evil doers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and mine enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
3 Ref Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I `am' confident.
4 Ref One `thing' I asked of Jehovah -- it I seek. My dwelling in the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.
