1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, even then will I be confident.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.
5 For in the day of trouble he shall keep me secretly in his pavilion: in the covert of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall lift me up upon a rock.
