3Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I [am] confident.
4One [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.
5For 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.
6And 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.
7Hear, O Jehovah, my voice -- I call, And favour me, and answer me.
8To Thee said my heart `They sought my face, Thy face, O Jehovah, I seek.`
9Hide 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.
