J. B. Phillips began to translate the Bible during World War II for study by youth groups of the Anglican church in London of which he was then vicar; his New Testament translations have since been read by millions. Four Prophets is his first translation from the Old Testament.But as for me, my eyes look for the Lord.I will wait for the God who will save me;Yes, my God will deliver me!Never exult over me, my enemy--When I fail, I shall rise again;When I sit in darkness,The Lord shall be my light.I will endure the displeasure of the Lord,(For I have sinned against him),Until the day when he takes up my cause,And vindicates my right.He will bring me out into the light,And I shall see the justness of his ways.Micah 7:7
