Psalms91

¹He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty .

²I will say to the Lord, My refuge and my fortress , my God , in whom I trust .

³For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence .

⁴He will cover you with his pinions , and under his wings you will find refuge ; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler .

⁵You will not fear the terror of the night , nor the arrow that flies by day ,

⁶nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness , nor the destruction that wastes at noonday .

⁷A thousand may fall at your side , ten thousand at your right hand , but it will not come near you.

⁸You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked .

⁹Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place — the Most High , who is my refuge —

¹⁰no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent .

¹¹For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways .

¹²On their hands they will bear you up , lest you strike your foot against a stone .

¹³You will tread on the lion and the adder ; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot .

¹⁴Because he holds fast to me in love , I will deliver him; I will protect him , because he knows my name .

¹⁵When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble ; I will rescue him and honor him.

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