Psalm 27

A Psalm of Fearless Trust in God.

1 The Lord is my light and my salvation;

Whom should I fear?

The Lord is the *27:1 Or refugedefense of my life;

Whom should I dread?

2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh,

My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.

3 If an army encamps against me,

My heart will not fear;

If war arises against me,

In spite of this I am confident.
