Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
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?
The
LORD
is my light and my salvation ;
whom shall
I fear? the
LORD
is the strength of my life ;
of whom shall
I be
afraid?
When evil
doers
come
near
to
me to eat my flesh, My
adversaries
and
mine
enemies
to
me,
They have
stumbled and fallen
.
When the
wicked,
even
mine
enemies
and
my
foes,
came
upon
me to eat up
my flesh, they stumbled and fell
.
Though a
host doth
encamp against me, My heart doth
not fear ,
Though war riseth
up
against me, In this I `am'
confident.
Though an
host should
encamp against me, my heart shall
not fear :
though war should
rise
against me, in this will
I be
confident.
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.
One thing have
I desired
of the
LORD,
that
will
I seek after;
that
I
may
dwell
in the house of the
LORD
all the days of my life, to behold
the beauty
of the
LORD
, and to enquire
in his temple.
For He
hideth
me
in a
tabernacle
in
the day
of evil,
He hideth
me in a
secret place
of His tent,
On
a
rock
he raiseth
me up.
For in the time
of trouble
he shall
hide
me in his
pavilion:
in
the
secret of his tabernacle
shall
he hide
me ;
he
shall
set
me
up upon
a
rock
.
And now ,
lifted up is
my
head,
Above my
enemies --
my
surrounders,
And
I sacrifice
in His tent
sacrifices of shouting,
I sing, yea, I sing praise
to
Jehovah
.
And now shall
mine
head
be
lifted up above mine
enemies round
about
me:
therefore
will
I offer
in his tabernacle
sacrifices of joy;
I will
sing, yea, I will
sing praises
unto
the
LORD
.
Hear, O Jehovah
, my voice --
I
call,
And
favour
me, and answer me.
Hear, O LORD
, when
I
cry
with
my voice :
have
mercy
also
upon
me, and answer me.
To
Thee
said
my
heart
`They
sought
my face, Thy face, O
Jehovah
, I seek. '
When
thou
saidst,
Seek
ye
my face ;
my
heart
said
unto
thee
, Thy face, LORD
, will
I seek.
Hide not Thy face from me ,
Turn
not aside
in
anger
Thy servant ,
My
help
Thou hast been .
Leave me not, nor
forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Hide not thy face far
from me ;
put
not thy servant away
in
anger:
thou hast been my
help;
leave me not, neither
forsake me, O God of my salvation.
When my father and my mother Have
forsaken
me, then doth
Jehovah
gather
me.
When my father and my mother forsake
me, then the
LORD
will
take
me up
.
Shew
me ,
O
Jehovah,
Thy way, And lead me in a path of
uprightness
, For
the
sake
of my
beholders
.
Teach
me thy way, O
LORD,
and lead me in a plain
path, because
of mine
enemies
.
Give
me not to
the will of my
adversaries,
For risen against me have
false
witnesses
, And they
breathe out violence
to
me
.
Deliver
me not over
unto
the will of mine
enemies:
for false
witnesses
are
risen up
against me, and such
as
breathe out cruelty
.
I had not
believed to look
on
the goodness of Jehovah
In the land of the living !
I had fainted,
unless
I
had
believed to see
the goodness of the
LORD
in the land of the living .
Look
unto
Jehovah
--
be strong
, And He doth
strengthen thy
heart, Yea
, look
unto
Jehovah!
Wait
on
the
LORD:
be of
good
courage
, and he shall
strengthen thine
heart :
wait
, I
say
, on
the
LORD.
