Psalm 27:7-14
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 Lord, hear my voice when I call;
be gracious to me and answer me.(A)
8 My heart says this about You,
“You[a] are to seek My face.”
Lord, I will seek Your face.(B)
9 Do not hide Your face from me;(C)
do not turn Your servant away in anger.(D)
You have been my helper;(E)
do not leave me or abandon me,
God of my salvation.
10 Even if my father and mother abandon me,
the Lord cares for me.(F)
11 Because of my adversaries,
show me Your way, Lord,
and lead me on a level path.(G)
12 Do not give me over to the will of my foes,
for false witnesses rise up against me,
breathing violence.(H)
13 I am certain that I will see the Lord’s goodness
in the land of the living.(I)
14 Wait for the Lord;
be strong[b] and courageous.(J)
Wait for the Lord.(K)
