Psalm 27:7-9

Contemporary English Version

⁷ Please listen when I pray!
    Have pity. Answer my prayer.
⁸ My heart tells me to pray.
I am eager to see your face,
⁹     so don't hide from me.
I am your servant, Lord,
and you have helped me.
    Don't turn from me in anger.
You alone keep me safe.
    Don't reject or desert me.
