< Psalms 91 >

1 O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and abidest in the shadow of the Almighty;
יֹשֵׁב בְּסֵתֶר עֶלְיוֹן בְּצֵל שַׁדַּי יִתְלוֹנָֽן׃
2 I will say of the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust,
אֹמַר לַיהֹוָה מַחְסִי וּמְצוּדָתִי אֱלֹהַי אֶבְטַח־בּֽוֹ׃
3 That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
כִּי הוּא יַצִּילְךָ מִפַּח יָקוּשׁ מִדֶּבֶר הַוּֽוֹת׃
4 He will cover thee with His pinions, and under His wings shalt thou take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.
בְּאֶבְרָתוֹ ׀ יָסֶךְ לָךְ וְתַחַת־כְּנָפָיו תֶּחְסֶה צִנָּה וְסֹחֵרָה אֲמִתּֽוֹ׃
5 Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
לֹֽא־תִירָא מִפַּחַד לָיְלָה מֵחֵץ יָעוּף יוֹמָֽם׃
6 Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
מִדֶּבֶר בָּאֹפֶל יַהֲלֹךְ מִקֶּטֶב יָשׁוּד צׇהֳרָֽיִם׃
7 A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; 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 recompense of the wicked.
רַק בְּעֵינֶיךָ תַבִּיט וְשִׁלֻּמַת רְשָׁעִים תִּרְאֶֽה׃
9 For thou hast made the LORD who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation.
כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהֹוָה מַחְסִי עֶלְיוֹן שַׂמְתָּ מְעוֹנֶֽךָ׃
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
לֹא־תְאֻנֶּה אֵלֶיךָ רָעָה וְנֶגַע לֹא־יִקְרַב בְּאׇהֳלֶֽךָ׃
11 For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
כִּי מַלְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה־לָּךְ לִשְׁמׇרְךָ בְּכׇל־דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃
12 They shall bear thee upon 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 asp; the young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under feet.
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 rescue him, and bring him to honour.
יִקְרָאֵנִי ׀ וְֽאֶעֱנֵהוּ עִמּֽוֹ־אָנֹכִי בְצָרָה אֲחַלְּצֵהוּ וַאֲכַבְּדֵֽהוּ׃
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'
אֹרֶךְ יָמִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵהוּ וְאַרְאֵהוּ בִּישׁוּעָתִֽי׃
