3  ^lThough an army encamp against me,

my heart shall not fear;

though war arise against me,

yet¹ I will be confident.

4  ^mOne thing have I asked of the Lord,

that will I seek after:

that I may ⁿdwell in the house of the Lord

all the days of my life,

to gaze upon ^othe beauty of the Lord

and to inquire² in his temple.

5  For he will ^phide me in his shelter

in the day of trouble;

he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;

he will ^qlift me high upon a rock.
