The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.

Yes, the Lord is for me; he will help me.

    than to trust in people.
It is better to take refuge in the Lord
    than to trust in princes.

Psalm 27

A psalm of David.

The Lord is my light and my salvation—
    so why should I be afraid?
The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger,
    so why should I tremble?
When evil people come to devour me,
    when my enemies and foes attack me,
    they will stumble and fall.
Though a mighty army surrounds me,
    my heart will not be afraid.
Even if I am attacked,
    I will remain confident.
