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.
