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 evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh,even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an army should encamp against me,my heart shall not fear.Though war should rise against me,even then I will be confident.
4 One thing I have asked of the Lord, that I will seek after:that I may dwell in the Lord’s house all the days of my life,to see the Lord’s beauty,and to inquire in his temple.
5 For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion.In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me.He will lift me up on a rock.
6 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me;I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent.I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
7 Hear, Lord, when I cry with my voice.Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
