Psalms 26 — ENGLXXUP

26 Verse 1 A Psalm of David, before he was anointed. ^{Verse 2} When evildoers drew nigh against me to eat up my flesh, ^{Verse 3} Though an army should set itself in array against me, my heart shall not be afraid: ^{Verse 4} One thing have I asked of the Lord, this will I earnestly seek: ^{Verse 5} For in the day of mine afflictions he hid me in his tabernacle: ^{Verse 6} And now, behold, he has lifted up my head over mine enemies: ^{Verse 7} Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: ^{Verse 8} My heart said to thee, I have diligently sought thy face: ^{Verse 9} Turn not thy face away from me, ^{Verse 10} For my father and my mother have forsaken me, ^{Verse 11} Teach me, O Lord, in thy way, ^{Verse 12} Deliver me not over to the desire of them that afflict me; ^{Verse 13} I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. ^{Verse 14} Wait on the Lord:
