Psalm 27

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 <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 When evil-doers, even my haters, came on me to put an end to me, they were broken and put to shame.

3 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 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.

5 For in the time of trouble he will keep me safe in his tent: in the secret place of his tent he will keep me from men's eyes; high on a rock he will put me.

6 And now my head will be lifted up higher than my haters who are round me: because of this I will make offerings of joy in his tent; I will make a song, truly I will make a song of praise to the Lord.

7 O Lord, let the voice of my cry come to your ears: have mercy on me, and give me an answer.

8 When you said, Make search for my face, my heart said to you, For your face will I make my search.

9 Let not your face be covered from me; do not put away your servant in wrath; you have been my help: do not give me up or take your support from me, O God of my salvation.

10 When my father and my mother are turned away from me, then the Lord will be my support.

11 Make your way clear to me, O Lord, guiding me by the right way, because of my haters.

12 Do not give me into their hands, because false witnesses have come out against me, and men breathing destruction.

13 I had almost given up my hope of seeing the blessing of the Lord in the land of the living.

14 Let your hope be in the Lord: take heart and be strong; yes, let your hope be in the Lord.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 7 (Of Dovid) Hashem is my ohr and Yishi (my Salvation); whom shall I fear? Hashem is the ma’oz (stronghold) of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When the resha’im, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to devour my basar, they stumbled and fell.

3 Though an army should encamp against me, my lev shall not fear; though milchamah should break out against me, in this will I be confident.

4 One thing have I asked of Hashem, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the Bais Hashem all the days of my life, to behold the gracefulness of Hashem, and to inquire in His Heikhal.

5 For in the Yom Ra’ah (day of evil) He shall keep me safe in His Sukkah; in the shelter of His Ohel shall He conceal me; He shall set me up upon a Tzur (rock).

6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies around about me; therefore will I offer in His Ohel sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, yea, I will make music unto Hashem.

7 Shema, Hashem, when I call with my voice; chaneini also upon me, and answer me.

8 When my lev said of Thee, Seek ye My face, my lev said unto Thee, Thy face, Hashem, will I seek.

9 Hide not Thy face far from me; turn not Thy eved away in anger; Thou hast been my ezer; leave me not, neither forsake me, Elohei Yishi (G-d of my Salvation).

10 When avi and immi forsake me, then Hashem will take me up.

11 Teach me Thy Derech, Hashem, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

12 Deliver me not over unto the desire of mine enemies; for edei sheker are risen up against me, and such as breathe out chamas.

13 Did I not believe to see Hashem’s goodness in the Eretz Chayyim!

14 Wait for Hashem: Chazak! And strengthen thine lev. Wait, I say, for Hashem.
