< Psalms 91 >

1 Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;
住在至高者隱密處的, 必住在全能者的蔭下。
2 Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.
我要論到耶和華說: 他是我的避難所,是我的山寨, 是我的上帝,是我所倚靠的。
3 He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.
他必救你脫離捕鳥人的網羅 和毒害的瘟疫。
4 You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.
他必用自己的翎毛遮蔽你; 你要投靠在他的翅膀底下; 他的誠實是大小的盾牌。
5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,
你必不怕黑夜的驚駭, 或是白日飛的箭,
6 Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.
也不怕黑夜行的瘟疫, 或是午間滅人的毒病。
7 You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
雖有千人仆倒在你旁邊, 萬人仆倒在你右邊, 這災卻不得臨近你。
8 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.
你惟親眼觀看, 見惡人遭報。
9 Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;
耶和華是我的避難所; 你已將至高者當你的居所,
10 No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.
禍患必不臨到你, 災害也不挨近你的帳棚。
11 For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.
因他要為你吩咐他的使者, 在你行的一切道路上保護你。
12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
他們要用手托着你, 免得你的腳碰在石頭上。
13 You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.
你要踹在獅子和虺蛇的身上, 踐踏少壯獅子和大蛇。
14 Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.
上帝說:因為他專心愛我,我就要搭救他; 因為他知道我的名,我要把他安置在高處。
15 When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.
他若求告我,我就應允他; 他在急難中,我要與他同在; 我要搭救他,使他尊貴。
16 With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.
我要使他足享長壽, 將我的救恩顯明給他。
