< Mazmur 91 >

1 Orang yang berlindung pada Yang Mahatinggi, dan tinggal dalam naungan Yang Mahakuasa,
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of Shaddai.
2 boleh berkata kepada TUHAN, "Engkaulah pembela dan pelindungku, Allahku, pada-Mulah aku percaya."
I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust."
3 Ia akan melepaskan engkau dari bahaya tersembunyi, dan dari penyakit yang membawa maut.
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence.
4 Ia akan menudungi engkau dengan sayap-Nya, sehingga engkau aman dalam naungan-Nya; kesetiaan-Nya seperti perisai yang melindungi engkau.
He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His truth is an encompassing shield.
5 Engkau tak usah takut akan bahaya di waktu malam, atau serangan mendadak di waktu siang;
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day;
6 akan bencana yang datang di waktu gelap, atau kehancuran yang menimpa di tengah hari.
nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 Biar seribu orang tewas di sisimu, dan sepuluh ribu di sebelah kananmu, tetapi engkau sendiri tak akan cedera.
A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
8 Bila engkau memandang di sekelilingmu, engkau melihat orang jahat kena pembalasan.
You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked.
9 Sebab engkau menjadikan TUHAN pembelamu, Yang Mahatinggi kaujadikan pelindungmu.
Because you have made the LORD, my refuge, the Most High, your dwelling place,
10 Maka engkau tak akan kena bencana, rumahmu tak akan kena ditimpa malapetaka.
no evil shall overtake you; no plague shall come near your dwelling.
11 Allah menyuruh malaikat-Nya menjagai engkau, untuk melindungi engkau ke mana saja engkau pergi.
For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways.
12 Mereka akan mengangkat engkau di telapak tangannya, supaya kakimu jangan tersandung pada batu.
In their hands they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 Engkau akan melangkahi ular dan singa, menginjak singa muda dan ular berbisa.
You will tread upon the lion and the viper. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot.
14 Kata TUHAN, "Orang yang mencintai Aku akan Kuselamatkan, yang mengakui Aku akan Kulindungi.
"Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will 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 will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.
16 Dia akan Kupuaskan dengan umur panjang, dan Kuselamatkan."
I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation."
