27 A Psalm of David.
27 A Psalme of David.
The Lord my light, & my health is, what shall make me dismayed? ⟨image ?⟩The Lord is my life's-strength, of whom should I then be afraid? verse 2 When wicked men, mine enemies, and my foes in battle; against me come, to eat my flesh, themselves stumbled & fell. verse 3 If that an host against me camp, my heart undaunted is: if war against me should arise, I am secure in this. verse 4 One thing of God I asked have, which I will still request: that I may in the house of God, all days of my life rest: To see the beauty of the Lord, and in his Temple seek. verse 5 For in his tent in th'evil-day, hidden he will me keep: He will me hide in secrecy of his pavilion: and will me highly lift upon the rocks-munition. verse 6 Moreover at this-time my head lifted on high shall be, above mine enemies, who do about encompass me. Therefore in's tent I'll sacrifice, of joy an offering, into Jehovah, sing will I, yea, I will praises sing.
