5. For he will hide me in his shelterin the day of trouble;he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;he will lift me high upon a rock.
6. And now my head shall be lifted upabove my enemies all around me,and I will offer in his tentsacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
7. Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud;be gracious to me and answer me!
8. You have said, “Seek my face.”My heart says to you,“Your face, Lord, do I seek.”
9. Hide not your face from me.Turn not your servant away in anger,O you who have been my help.Cast me not off; forsake me not, O God of my salvation!
10. For my father and my mother have forsaken me,but the Lord will take me in.
11. Teach me your way, O Lord,and lead me on a level pathbecause of my enemies.
12. Give me not up to the will of my adversaries;for false witnesses have risen against me,and they breathe out violence.
13. I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lordin the land of the living!
