Psalms 27:1-6

1Yhwh is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Yhwh is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.1

3Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

4One thing have I desired of Yhwh, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of Yhwh all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Yhwh, and to enquire in his temple.2

5For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

6And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Yhwh.3
