^4 (I)One thing I have asked from Yahweh, that I shall seek:
That I may ^(J)dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life,
To behold ^(K)the ^[b]beauty of Yahweh
And to ^(L)inquire in His temple.
⁵ For in the ^(M)day of calamity He will ^(N)conceal me in His shelter;
In the secret place of His tent He will ^(O)hide me;
He will ^(P)lift me up on a rock.
⁶ And now ^(Q)my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me,
And I will offer in His tent ^(R)sacrifices with loud shouts of joy;
I will ^(S)sing, and I will sing praises to Yahweh.

^7 (T)Hear, O Yahweh, when I call with my voice,
And be gracious to me and ^(U)answer me.
⁸ On Your behalf my heart says, “^(V)Seek My face,”
“Your face, O Yahweh, ^(W)I shall seek.”
^9 (X)Do not hide Your face from me,
Do not turn Your slave away in ^(Y)anger;
You have been ^(Z)my help;
^(AA)Do not abandon me and do not ^(AB)forsake me,
O God of my salvation!
^10 [c]For my father and ^(AC)my mother have forsaken me,
But ^(AD)Yahweh will take me up.

^11 (AE)Instruct me in Your way, O Yahweh,
And lead me in a ^(AF)level path
Because of ^[d]my foes.
¹² Do not give me over to the ^[e](AG)desire of my adversaries,
For ^(AH)false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as ^(AI)breathe out violence.
^13 [f]I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the ^(AJ)goodness of Yahweh
In the ^(AK)land of the living.
^14 (AL)Hope in Yahweh;
Be ^(AM)strong and let your heart take courage;
Hope in Yahweh.
