Faith Expressions

Seeking God’s Face

The article contains a gallery of faith expression artworks based on Psalms 27:8. In the NIVUK Bible, the verse is translated in the following manner: “My heart says of you, ‘Seek his face!’ Your face, Lord, I will seek.” In the KJV Bible, the translation of the verse goes this way: “When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.” A third translation – from the NRSVACE Bible – gives almost the same translation as the NIVUK translation, and it is translated in this manner: “‘Come,’ my heart says, ‘seek his face!’ Your face, Lord, do I seek.”

 

Psalm 27 was a prayer assigned to King David.
