Psalms 91

¹Who so dwelleth in the secrete of the most High, shall abide in the shadowe of the Almightie.

²I will say vnto the Lord, O mine hope, and my fortresse: he is my God, in him will I trust.

³Surely he will deliuer thee from the snare of the hunter, and from the noysome pestilence.

⁴Hee will couer thee vnder his winges, and thou shalt be sure vnder his feathers: his trueth shall be thy shielde and buckler.

⁵Thou shalt not be afraide of the feare of the night, nor of the arrowe that flyeth by day:

⁶Nor of the pestilence that walketh in the darkenesse: nor of the plague that destroyeth at noone day.

⁷A thousand shall fall at thy side, and tenne thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come neere thee.

⁸Doubtlesse with thine eyes shalt thou beholde and see the reward of the wicked.

⁹For thou hast said, The Lord is mine hope: thou hast set the most High for thy refuge.

¹⁰There shall none euill come vnto thee, neither shall any plague come neere thy tabernacle.

¹¹For hee shall giue his Angels charge ouer thee to keepe thee in all thy wayes.

¹²They shall beare thee in their handes, that thou hurt not thy foote against a stone.

¹³Thou shalt walke vpon the lyon and aspe: the yong lyon and the dragon shalt thou treade vnder feete.

¹⁴Because he hath loued me, therefore will I deliuer him: I will exalt him because hee hath knowen my Name.

¹⁵He shall call vpon me, and I wil heare him: I will be with him in trouble: I will deliuer him, and glorifie him.

¹⁶With long life wil I satisfie him, and shew him my saluation.

¹He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

²I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

³Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

⁴He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

⁵Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

⁶Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

⁷A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

⁸Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

⁹Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

¹⁰There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

¹¹For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

¹²They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹³Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

¹⁴Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

¹⁵He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

¹⁶With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
