1 The Lord is my light and my salvation.Should I fear anyone?The Lord is a fortress protecting my life.Should I be frightened of anything?
2 When evildoers come at me trying to eat me up—it’s they, my foes and my enemies,who stumble and fall!
3 If an army camps against me,my heart won’t be afraid.If war comes up against me,I will continue to trust in this:
4 I have asked one thing from the Lord—it’s all I seek:to live in the Lord’s house all the days of my life,seeing the Lord’s beautyand constantly adoring his temple.
5 Because he will shelter me in his own dwellingduring troubling times;he will hide me in a secret place in his own tent;he will set me up high, safe on a rock.
