Psalms 27

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

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.

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.
