Psalm 27:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ My father and mother may desert me,
    but the Lord will accept me.
¹¹ Lord, teach me your ways.
    Lead me along a straight path.
    There are many people who treat me badly.
¹² My enemies want to harm me. So don’t turn me over to them.
    Witnesses who tell lies are rising up against me.
    They say all sorts of evil things about me.
