Psalms 27
Ready to read
1
Truth springs from the earth, And righteousness looks down from heaven.
2
Indeed, the LORD will give what is good, And our land will yield its produce.
3
Righteousness will go before Him And will make His footsteps into a way [in which to walk].
4
A Prayer of David. Incline Your ear, O LORD, and answer me, For I am distressed and needy [I long for Your help].
5
Protect my life (soul), for I am godly and faithful; O You my God, save Your servant, who trusts in You [believing in You and relying on You, confidently committing everything to You].
6
Be gracious and merciful to me, O Lord, For to You I cry out all the day long.
7
Make Your servant rejoice, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul [all that I am—in prayer].
8
For You, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive [our sins, sending them away, completely letting them go forever and ever]; And abundant in lovingkindness and overflowing in mercy to all those who call upon You.
9
Hear, O LORD, my prayer; And listen attentively to the voice of my supplications (specific requests)!
10
In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, For You will answer me.
11
There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works [of wonder and majesty] like Yours.
12
All nations whom You have made shall come and kneel down in worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name.
13
For You are great and do wondrous works! You alone are God.
14
Teach me Your way, O LORD, I will walk and live in Your truth; Direct my heart to fear Your name [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder].
