TranslationIf camps take up a position against me:/ my heart shall not fear./ If battle should rise up against me:/ in this I will hope./ I have asked one thing of the lord this I will search for: that/ I may live in the house of the lord all the days of my life./ That I may see the goodwill of the lord:/ and may visit his temple./ Because he has hidden me in his tent in the day/ of evils he has shielded me in the concealed place of his tabernacle./ Upon a rock/ he has exalted me: and now he has exalted/ my head above my enemies./ I have gone round and I have sacrificed in his tabernacle/ a sacrifice of loud cries: I will sing/ and recite a psalm to the lord./ Hear lord my voice with which I have cried out to you:/ have mercy on me and hear me./ To you my heart has said my face has sought you:/ your face lord I will seek./ Do not turn your face from me:/ nor turn aside from your servant in your anger./ Be my helper forsake me not:/ |

TranscriptionSi consistant adversum me castra: / non timebit cor meum. / Si exurgat adversum me pr[o]elium: / in hoc ego sperabo. / Una[m] petii a d[omi]no hanc requiram: ut / inhabitem in domo d[omi]no om[n]ib[us] dieb[us] vit[a]e me[a]e. / Ut videam voluntatem d[omi]ni: / et visitem templum eius. / Q[uonia]m abscondit me intabernaculo suo in die / malor[um] p[ro]tex[it] me inabscondito tab[er]nac[u]li sui. / Inpetra exaltavit me: et nunc exaltavit / caput meu[m] sup[er] inimicos meos. / Circuivi et immolavi intabernaculo ei[us] / hostiam vociferationis: cantabo / et psalmum dicam d[omi]no. / Exaudi d[omi]ne vocem mea[m] qua clamavi adte: / miserere mei et exaudi me. / Tibi dixit cor meu[m] exq[u]isivit te facies mea: / faciem tuam d[omi]ne requiram. / Ne avertas faciem tuam ame: / ne declines inira a servo tuo. / Adiutor m[eu]s esto ne derelinquas me: / |
