1 The Lord is my light and my salvation.
2 Evildoers closed in on me to tear me to pieces.
3 Even though an army sets up camp against me,
4 I have asked one thing from the Lord.
5 He hides me in his shelter when there is trouble.
6 Now my head will be raised above my enemies who surround me.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud.
8 ⌞When you said,⌟
9 Do not hide your face from me.
10 Even if my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will take care of me.
11 Teach me your way, O Lord.
12 Do not surrender me to the will of my opponents.
13 I believe that I will see the goodness of the Lord
14 Wait with hope for the Lord.
