< Psalms 91 >

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
יֹשֵׁב בְּסֵתֶר עֶלְיוֹן בְּצֵל שַׁדַּי יִתְלוֹנָֽן׃
2 I say of Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress; my God, I will confide in him.
אֹמַר לַֽיהוָה מַחְסִי וּמְצוּדָתִי אֱלֹהַי אֶבְטַח־בּֽוֹ׃
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from the destructive pestilence.
כִּי הוּא יַצִּֽילְךָ מִפַּח יָקוּשׁ מִדֶּבֶר הַוּֽוֹת׃
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou find refuge: his truth is a shield and buckler.
בְּאֶבְרָתוֹ ׀ יָסֶךְ לָךְ וְתַֽחַת־כְּנָפָיו תֶּחְסֶה צִנָּה וְֽסֹחֵרָה אֲמִתּֽוֹ׃
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, for the arrow that flieth by day,
לֹא־תִירָא מִפַּחַד לָיְלָה מֵחֵץ יָעוּף יוֹמָֽם׃
6 For the pestilence that walketh in darkness, for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
מִדֶּבֶר בָּאֹפֶל יַהֲלֹךְ מִקֶּטֶב יָשׁוּד צָהֳרָֽיִם׃
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; [but] it shall not come nigh thee.
יִפֹּל מִצִּדְּךָ ׀ אֶלֶף וּרְבָבָה מִימִינֶךָ אֵלֶיךָ לֹא יִגָּֽשׁ׃
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the reward of the wicked.
רַק בְּעֵינֶיךָ תַבִּיט וְשִׁלֻּמַת רְשָׁעִים תִּרְאֶֽה׃
9 Because thou hast made Jehovah, my refuge, the Most High, thy dwelling-place,
כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהוָה מַחְסִי עֶלְיוֹן שַׂמְתָּ מְעוֹנֶֽךָ׃
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
לֹֽא־תְאֻנֶּה אֵלֶיךָ רָעָה וְנֶגַע לֹא־יִקְרַב בְּאָהֳלֶֽךָ׃
11 For he shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways:
כִּי מַלְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה־לָּךְ לִשְׁמָרְךָ בְּכָל־דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃
12 They shall bear thee up in [their] hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
עַל־כַּפַּיִם יִשָּׂאוּנְךָ פֶּן־תִּגֹּף בָּאֶבֶן רַגְלֶֽךָ׃
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and the adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under foot.
עַל־שַׁחַל וָפֶתֶן תִּדְרֹךְ תִּרְמֹס כְּפִיר וְתַנִּֽין׃
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
כִּי בִי חָשַׁק וַאֲפַלְּטֵהוּ אֲשַׂגְּבֵהוּ כִּֽי־יָדַע שְׁמִֽי׃
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him.
יִקְרָאֵנִי ׀ וְֽאֶעֱנֵהוּ עִמּֽוֹ־אָנֹכִי בְצָרָה אֲחַלְּצֵהוּ וַֽאֲכַבְּדֵֽהוּ׃
16 With length of days will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
אֹרֶךְ יָמִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵהוּ וְאַרְאֵהוּ בִּֽישׁוּעָתִֽי׃
