Psalms 27:3-7 Common English Bible (CEB)

3. If an army camps against me,my heart won’t be afraid.If war comes up against me,I will continue to trust in this:

4. I have asked one thing from the Lord—it’s all I seek:to live in the Lord’s house all the days of my life,seeing the Lord’s beautyand constantly adoring his temple.

5. Because he will shelter me in his own dwellingduring troubling times;he will hide me in a secret place in his own tent;he will set me up high, safe on a rock.

6. Now my head is higher than the enemies surrounding me,and I will offer sacrifices in God’s tent—sacrifices with shouts of joy!I will sing and praise the Lord.

7. Lord, listen to my voice when I cry out—have mercy on me and answer me!
