DAY 8

詩 27 :1 - 8

1〔大衛的詩。〕耶和華是我的亮光、
是我的拯救，我還怕誰呢，
耶和華是我性命的保障，〔保障或作力量〕我還懼誰呢。
2那作惡的、就是我的仇敵、前來喫我肉的時候、
就絆跌仆倒。
3雖有軍兵安營攻擊我、我的心也不害怕，
雖然興起刀兵攻擊我、我必仍舊安穩。
4有一件事、我曾求耶和華、我仍要尋求，
就是一生一世住在耶和華的殿中、
瞻仰他的榮美、在他的殿裏求問。
5因為我遭遇患難、他必暗暗地保守我，
在他亭子裏、把我藏在他帳幕的隱密處、
將我高舉在磐石上。
6現在我得以昂首、高過四面的仇敵，
我要在他的帳幕裏歡然獻祭，我要唱詩、歌頌耶和華。
7耶和華阿、我用聲音呼籲的時候、求你垂聽，
並求你憐恤我、應允我。
8你說、你們當尋求我的面，那時我心向你說、
耶和華阿、你的面我正要尋求。

Psalms 27:1-8

1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked came against me
To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes,
They stumbled and fell.
3 Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident.
4 One thing I have desired of the LORD,
That will I 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 inquire in His temple.
5 For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His pavilion;
In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me;
He shall set me high upon a rock.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up
above my enemies all around me;
Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice!
Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You,
“Your face, LORD, I will seek.”
