3Though a host should encamp against me, My heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, Even then I will be confident.
4One thing have I asked of Yahweh, that will I seek after, That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life, To see the beauty of Yahweh, And to inquire in his temple.
5For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tent will he hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.
6Now shall my head be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to Yahweh.
7Hear, Yahweh, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
8When you said, "Seek my face," My heart said to you, "I will seek your face, Yahweh."
9Don`t hide your face from me. Don`t put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don`t abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
