< Psalms 91 >
1 He who sitteth under the shelter of the Most High Maketh his abode in the shadow of the Almighty.
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I say to the LORD, Thou art my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.
I will say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.
3 Surely he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the wasting pestilence;
For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover thee with his feathers, And under his wings shalt thou find refuge; His faithfulness shall be thy shield and buckler.
He will cover thee with his pinions, and under his wings shall thou take refuge. His truth is a shield and a buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night, Nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
Thou shall not be afraid for the terror by night, nor for the arrow that flies by day,
6 Nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor of the plague that destroyeth at noonday.
for the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall by thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; But thee it shall not touch.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come near thee.
8 Thou shalt only behold with thine eyes, And see the recompense of the wicked.
Thou shall only behold with thine eyes, and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the LORD thy refuge, And the Most High thy habitation,
For thou, O Jehovah, are my refuge! Thou have made the Most High thy habitation.
10 No evil shall befall thee, Nor any plague come near thy dwelling.
There shall no evil befall thee, nor shall any plague come near thy tent,
11 For he will give his angels charge over thee, To guard thee in all thy ways.
for he will give his agents charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in 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 the adder; The young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under foot.
Thou shall tread upon the lion and adder. The young lion and the serpent thou shall trample under foot.
14 “Because he loveth me, I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knoweth my name.
Because he has set his love upon me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high because he has known my name.
15 When he calleth upon me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and bring him to honor.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation.”
I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.
