Psa 27:5 | NETfull | STEP | He will surely give me shelter in the day of danger; he will hide me in his home; he will place me on an inaccessible rocky summit.

Psalms 27:5

5 He will surely ^{▼▼ Or “for he will.” The translation assumes the כִּי (ki) is asseverative here, rather than causal.} give me shelter ^{▼▼ Heb “he will hide me in his hut.”} in the day of danger; ^{▼▼ Or “trouble.”}
he will hide me in his home; ^{▼▼ Heb “tent.”}
he will place me ^{▼▼ The three imperfect verb forms in v. 5 anticipate a positive response to the prayer offered in vv. 7–12.} on an inaccessible rocky summit. ^{▼▼ Heb “on a rocky summit he lifts me up.” The Lord places the psalmist in an inaccessible place where his enemies cannot reach him. See Ps 18:2.}
