1 The Lord is my light and my salvation - whom shall I fear? The Lord is the rampart of my life; I will not be afraid.
2 When the wicked rush at me to devour my flesh, it is my foes who stumble, my enemies fall.
3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart will not fail; though war break out against me, I will still be confident.
4 One thing I ask of the Lord, one thing I seek - that I may dwell in his house all the days of my life, to gaze at his jewel and to visit his sanctuary.
5 For he will keep me safe in his shelter in times of misfortune; he will hide me beneath his roof, and set me high upon a rock.
6 Then my head will be lifted up over the enemies round about me. I will offer sacrifices at his Tent with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music in praise of the Lord.
7 Hear my voice when I call, O Lord, have mercy on me and answer.
8 My heart says to you, "I seek your face, O Lord."
9 Do not hide your face from me nor turn away your servant in anger. You are my protector, do not reject me abandon me not, O God my savior!
10 Though my father and mother forsake me, yet will the Lord receive me.
11 Teach me, O Lord your way; lead me along a straight path.
12 Save me from the plot of my enemies, for false witnesses have risen against me to pin me down in their violence.
13 I hope, I am sure, that I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
14 Trust in the Lord, be strong and courageous - yes, put your hope in the Lord!
