Psalms 91

1 O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and abidest in the shadow of the Almighty;

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

2 I will say of the LORD, who is 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 That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence.

4 He will cover thee with His pinions, and under His wings shalt thou take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day;

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; it shall not come nigh thee.

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

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the recompense of the wicked.

Only with thy eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 For thou hast made the LORD who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation.

Because thou hast made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.

There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come near thy dwelling.

11 For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee upon their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and asp; the young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under feet.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

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.

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.

15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him, and bring him to honour.

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

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'

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