Psalm 27:1-4

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Psalm 27

My Stronghold

Davidic.

¹The Lord is my light and my salvation—
whom should I fear?^(A)
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
of whom should I be afraid?^(B)
²When evildoers came against me to devour my flesh,^(C)
my foes and my enemies stumbled and fell.^(D)
³Though an army deploys against me,
my heart is not afraid;
though a war breaks out against me,
still I am confident.^(E)

⁴I have asked one thing from the Lord;
it is what I desire:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,^(F)
gazing on the beauty of the Lord^(G)
and seeking Him in His temple.^(H)
