Psalms 91
1 Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.
| ישב בסתר עליון בצל שדי יתלונן׃ |
2 He shall say to the Lord, You are my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.
| אמר ליהוה מחסי ומצודתי אלהי אבטח בו׃ |
3 For he shall deliver you from the snare of the hunters, from [every] troublesome matter.
| כי הוא יצילך מפח יקוש מדבר הוות׃ |
4 He shall overshadow you with his shoulders, and you shall trust under his wings: his truth shall cover you with a shield.
| באברתו יסך לך ותחת כנפיו תחסה צנה וסחרה אמתו׃ |
5 You shall not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;
| לא תירא מפחד לילה מחץ יעוף יומם׃ |
6 [nor] of the [evil] thing that walks in darkness; [nor] of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.
| מדבר באפל יהלך מקטב ישוד צהרים׃ |
7 A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
| יפל מצדך אלף ורבבה מימינך אליך לא יגש׃ |
8 Only with your eyes shall you observe and see the reward of sinners.
| רק בעיניך תביט ושלמת רשעים תראה׃ |
9 For you, O Lord, are my hope: you, my soul, have made the Most High your refuge.
| כי אתה יהוה מחסי עליון שמת מעונך׃ |
10 No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.
| לא תאנה אליך רעה ונגע לא יקרב באהלך׃ |
11 For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.
| כי מלאכיו יצוה לך לשמרך בכל דרכיך׃ |
12 They shall bear you up on their hands, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.
| על כפים ישאונך פן תגף באבן רגלך׃ |
13 You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon.
| על שחל ופתן תדרך תרמס כפיר ותנין׃ |
14 For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.
| כי בי חשק ואפלטהו אשגבהו כי ידע שמי׃ |
15 He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.
| יקראני ואענהו עמו אנכי בצרה אחלצהו ואכבדהו׃ |
16 I will satisfy him with length of days, and show him my salvation.
| ארך ימים אשביעהו ואראהו בישועתי׃ |
