Psalms 91
1 Those who live under the protection of God Almighty, will be able to rest [safely] under his care.
Orang yang duduk dalam lindungan Yang Mahatinggi dan bermalam dalam naungan Yang Mahakuasa
2 I will declare to Yahweh, “You protect me; [you are like] a fort [MET] in which I am safe. You are my God, the one in whom I trust.”
akan berkata kepada TUHAN: "Tempat perlindunganku dan kubu pertahananku, Allahku, yang kupercayai."
3 Yahweh will rescue you from all hidden traps and save you from deadly diseases.
Sungguh, Dialah yang akan melepaskan engkau dari jerat penangkap burung, dari penyakit sampar yang busuk.
4 He will shield/protect you [like a bird shields/protects its chicks] [MET] with/under her wings. You will be safe (in his care/because he takes care of you). His faithfully doing what he has promised is like a shield [MET] that will protect you.
Dengan kepak-Nya Ia akan menudungi engkau, di bawah sayap-Nya engkau akan berlindung, kesetiaan-Nya ialah perisai dan pagar tembok.
5 You will not be afraid of things that happen during the night that could (terrorize you/cause you to be very afraid), or of arrows that [your enemies will shoot at you] during the day.
Engkau tak usah takut terhadap kedahsyatan malam, terhadap panah yang terbang di waktu siang,
6 You will not be afraid of (plagues/widespread sicknesses) that demons cause when they attack people at night, or of other [evil forces] that kill people at midday.
terhadap penyakit sampar yang berjalan di dalam gelap, terhadap penyakit menular yang mengamuk di waktu petang.
7 Even if 1,000 people fall [dead] alongside you, even if 10,000 [people are dying] around you, you will not be harmed.
Walau seribu orang rebah di sisimu, dan sepuluh ribu di sebelah kananmu, tetapi itu tidak akan menimpamu.
8 Look and see that (wicked people are being punished/God is punishing wicked people)!
Engkau hanya menontonnya dengan matamu sendiri dan melihat pembalasan terhadap orang-orang fasik.
9 If you allow Yahweh to protect you, if you trust God Almighty to (shelter/take care of) you,
Sebab TUHAN ialah tempat perlindunganmu, Yang Mahatinggi telah kaubuat tempat perteduhanmu,
10 nothing evil will happen to you; no plague will come near your house,
malapetaka tidak akan menimpa kamu, dan tulah tidak akan mendekat kepada kemahmu;
11 because Yahweh will command his angels to protect you wherever you go.
sebab malaikat-malaikat-Nya akan diperintahkan-Nya kepadamu untuk menjaga engkau di segala jalanmu.
12 They will hold you up with their hands, with the result that you will not hurt your foot on a big stone.
Mereka akan menatang engkau di atas tangannya, supaya kakimu jangan terantuk kepada batu.
13 You will be [kept safe from being harmed by your enemies] [MET]; [it will be as though] you are stepping on lions and poisonous snakes [without them harming you!]
Singa dan ular tedung akan kaulangkahi, engkau akan menginjak anak singa dan ular naga.
14 [Yahweh says], “I will rescue those who love me, I will protect them because they (acknowledge that I am Yahweh/know me).
"Sungguh, hatinya melekat kepada-Ku, maka Aku akan meluputkannya, Aku akan membentenginya, sebab ia mengenal nama-Ku.
15 When they call out to me, I will answer them. I will help them when they are experiencing trouble; I will rescue them and honor them.
Bila ia berseru kepada-Ku, Aku akan menjawab, Aku akan menyertai dia dalam kesesakan, Aku akan meluputkannya dan memuliakannya.
16 I will reward them by enabling them to live a long time, and I will save them.”
Dengan panjang umur akan Kukenyangkan dia, dan akan Kuperlihatkan kepadanya keselamatan dari pada-Ku."
