Yahweh is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
Yahweh is the strong defense of my life;
Whom shall I dread?
•••

One thing I have asked from Yahweh, that I shall seek:
That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of Yahweh
And to inquire in His temple.
For in the day of calamity He will conceal me in His shelter;
In the secret place of His tent He will hide me;
He will lift me up on a rock.
And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me,
And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with loud shouts of joy;
I will sing, and I will sing praises to Yahweh.
•••

I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of Yahweh
In the land of the living.
Hope in Yahweh;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Hope in Yahweh.
