Psalm 27:1-3 
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is 
the strength of my life; of whom shall 1 be afraid? When the wicked, even 
mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stum- 
bled and fell. Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall 
not fear; though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
