1
The LORD gives me light and saves me. Why should I fear anyone? The LORD is my place of safety. Why should I be afraid?
2
My enemies are evil. They will trip and fall when they attack me and try to eat me alive.
3
Even if an army attacks me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if war breaks out against me, I will still trust in God.
4
I'm asking the LORD for only one thing. Here is what I want. I want to live in the house of the LORD all the days of my life. I want to look at the beauty of the Lord. I want to worship him in his temple.
5
When I'm in trouble, he will keep me safe in his house. He will hide me in the safety of his holy tent. He will put me on a rock that is very high.
