< Psalms 91 >
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, Under the shadow of the Almighty, will tarry,
He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,
2 Saying of Yahweh—My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I will trust.
He is saying of Jehovah, 'My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,'
3 For, he, will rescue thee, From the snare of the fowler, From the destructive pestilence.
For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
4 With his pinion, will he cover thee, And, under his wings, shalt thou seek refuge, A shield and buckler, is his faithfulness.
With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid, Of the dread of the night, Of the arrow that flieth by day;
Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,
6 Of the pestilence that, in darkness, doth walk, Of the plague that layeth waste at noonday.
Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,
7 There shall fall, at thy side, a thousand, Yea, myriads, at thy right hand, Unto thee, shall it not come nigh;
There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.
8 Save only, with thine own eyes, shalt thou discern, And, the recompense of the lawless, shalt thou see.
But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,
9 Because, thou, [hast made] Yahweh, my refuge, —The Most High, thou hast made thy dwelling-place,
(For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge, ) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.
10 There shall not be sent unto thee misfortune, Nor shall, plague, come near into thy tent;
Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,
11 For, his messengers, will he charge concerning thee, To keep thee, in all thy ways;
For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in all thy ways,
12 On hands, will they bear thee up, Lest thou strike, against a stone, thy foot;
On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a stone thy foot.
13 On the lion and adder, shalt thou tread, Shalt trample on young lion and crocodile.
On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.
14 Because, on me, he hath set firm his love, Therefore will I deliver him, I will set him on high, Because he hath known my Name;
Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him — I set him on high, Because he hath known My name.
15 He shall call me, and I will answer him, With him, will, I, be, in distress, I will rescue him, and will honour him;
He doth call Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honour him.
16 With length of days, will I satisfy him, And will show him my salvation.
With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
