2 When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall. (Ps 14:4) 3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet^[2] I will be confident. (Ps 3:6) 4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire^[3] in his temple.
