Psalm 27:1-3
New International Reader's Version

A psalm of David.

27 The Lord is my light, and he 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 swallow me up.
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.
