Psalm 27:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
27 1 David maketh this Psalm being delivered from great perils, as appeareth by the praises and thanksgiving annexed: 6 Wherein we may see the constant faith of David against the assaults of all his enemies. 7 And also the end wherefore he desireth to live and to be delivered, only to worship God in his Congregation.
A Psalm of David.

2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
