Psalm 27:9-11
New Catholic Bible
9 do not hide your face[a] from me.
Do not turn away your servant in anger,
you who have been my help.
Do not reject or forsake me,
O God, my Savior.
10 Even if my father and mother abandon me,
the Lord will gather me up.[b]
11 Teach me your way,[c] O Lord,
and lead me along a level path
because of my enemies.
