Psalm 27:7

A Conservative Version

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

See the chapter Copy

Consider [and] answer me, O LORD my God. Lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the death,

Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for to thee do I pray.

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness. Thou have enlarged me in distress. Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

I will say to God, Do not condemn me. Show me why thou contend with me.

Thou have turned for me my mourning into dancing. Thou have loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness,

For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing. My strength fails because of my iniquity, and my bones are wasted away.
