Psalms 91

¹He who sitteth under the shelter of the Most High Maketh his abode in the shadow of the Almighty.

²I say to the LORD, Thou art my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.

³Surely he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the wasting pestilence;

⁴He will cover thee with his feathers, And under his wings shalt thou find refuge; His faithfulness shall be thy shield and buckler.

⁵Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night, Nor of the arrow that flieth by day;

⁶Nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor of the plague that destroyeth at noonday.

⁷A thousand shall fall by thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; But thee it shall not touch.

⁸Thou shalt only behold with thine eyes, And see the recompense of the wicked.

⁹Because thou hast made the LORD thy refuge, And the Most High thy habitation,

¹⁰No evil shall befall thee, Nor any plague come near thy dwelling.

¹¹For he will give his angels charge over thee, To guard 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 the adder; The young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under foot.

¹⁴"Because he loveth me, I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knoweth my name.

¹⁵When he calleth upon me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and bring him to honor.

¹⁶With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation."

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.
