< Mazmur 91 >

1 Orang yang berlindung pada Yang Mahatinggi, dan tinggal dalam naungan Yang Mahakuasa,
He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, Habitually lodges in the shade of the Mighty,
2 boleh berkata kepada TUHAN, "Engkaulah pembela dan pelindungku, Allahku, pada-Mulah aku percaya."
He is saying of YHWH, “My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,”
3 Ia akan melepaskan engkau dari bahaya tersembunyi, dan dari penyakit yang membawa maut.
For He delivers you from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
4 Ia akan menudungi engkau dengan sayap-Nya, sehingga engkau aman dalam naungan-Nya; kesetiaan-Nya seperti perisai yang melindungi engkau.
He covers you over with His pinion, And under His wings you trust, His truth [is] a shield and buckler.
5 Engkau tak usah takut akan bahaya di waktu malam, atau serangan mendadak di waktu siang;
You are not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flies by day,
6 akan bencana yang datang di waktu gelap, atau kehancuran yang menimpa di tengah hari.
Of pestilence that walks in thick darkness, Of destruction that destroys at noon,
7 Biar seribu orang tewas di sisimu, dan sepuluh ribu di sebelah kananmu, tetapi engkau sendiri tak akan cedera.
One thousand fall at your side, And a myriad at your right hand, [But] it does not come near to you.
8 Bila engkau memandang di sekelilingmu, engkau melihat orang jahat kena pembalasan.
But with your eyes you look, And you see the reward of the wicked,
9 Sebab engkau menjadikan TUHAN pembelamu, Yang Mahatinggi kaujadikan pelindungmu.
(For You, O YHWH, [are] my refuge), You made the Most High your habitation.
10 Maka engkau tak akan kena bencana, rumahmu tak akan kena ditimpa malapetaka.
Evil does not happen to you, And a plague does not come near your tent,
11 Allah menyuruh malaikat-Nya menjagai engkau, untuk melindungi engkau ke mana saja engkau pergi.
For He charges His messengers for you, To keep you in all your ways,
12 Mereka akan mengangkat engkau di telapak tangannya, supaya kakimu jangan tersandung pada batu.
On the hands they bear you up, Lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13 Engkau akan melangkahi ular dan singa, menginjak singa muda dan ular berbisa.
You tread on lion and cobra, You trample young lion and dragon.
14 Kata TUHAN, "Orang yang mencintai Aku akan Kuselamatkan, yang mengakui Aku akan Kulindungi.
Because he has delighted in Me, I also deliver him—I set him on high, Because he has known My Name.
15 Kalau ia berseru kepada-Ku, Aku akan menjawabnya. Di waktu kesesakan, Aku akan menolong dia; dia akan Kuluputkan dan Kuberi kehormatan.
He calls Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honor him.
16 Dia akan Kupuaskan dengan umur panjang, dan Kuselamatkan."
I satisfy him with [the] length of [his] days, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
