Psalms 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague.

Surely he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.

He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you trust: his truth shall be your shield and buckler.

5 You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

You shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day;

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon.

Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 Though a thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you.

A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.

8 You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.

Only with your eyes shall you behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling— my refuge, the Most High—

Because you have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, your habitation;

10 no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.

There shall no evil befall you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.

11 For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

For he shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.

12 They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

They shall bear you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent.

You shall tread on the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shall you trample under feet.

14 “Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him.

Because he has set his love on me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

15 When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him.

He shall call on me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.

16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”

With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.
