Psalms 91

1 He who sitteth under the shelter of the Most High Maketh his abode 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 say to the LORD, Thou art my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.

I say of Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress; my God, I will confide in him.

3 Surely he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the wasting pestilence;

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from the destructive 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 shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou find refuge: his truth is a shield and buckler.

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

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, for the arrow that flieth by day,

6 Nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor of the plague that destroyeth at noonday.

For the pestilence that walketh in darkness, for the destruction that wasteth 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 nigh thee.

8 Thou shalt only behold with thine eyes, And see the recompense of the wicked.

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

9 Because thou hast made the LORD thy refuge, And the Most High thy habitation,

Because thou hast made Jehovah, my refuge, the Most High, thy dwelling-place,

10 No evil shall befall thee, Nor any plague come near thy dwelling.

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

11 For he will give his angels charge over thee, To guard thee in all thy ways.

For he shall give his angels charge concerning 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 shalt tread upon the lion and the adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou 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 hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath 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 honour him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation.”

With length of days will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
