4One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek:
         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 meditate in His temple.

5For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle;
         In the secret place of His tent He will hide me;
         He will lift me up on a rock.

6And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me,
         And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy;
         I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

7Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice,
         And be gracious to me and answer me.

8When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You,
         “Your face, O LORD, I shall seek.”

9Do not hide Your face from me,
         Do not turn Your servant away in anger;
         You have been my help;
         Do not abandon me nor forsake me,
         O God of my salvation!

10For my father and my mother have forsaken me,
         But the LORD will take me up.

11Teach me Your way, O LORD,
         And lead me in a level path
         Because of my foes.

12Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries,
         For false witnesses have risen against me,
         And such as breathe out violence.

13I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD
         In the land of the living.

14Wait for the LORD;
         Be strong and let your heart take courage;
         Yes, wait for the LORD.
