Tag: psalms 91 1-16

₁ He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

₂ I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust."

₃ Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence.

₄ He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

₅ You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

₆ Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

₇ A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you.

₈ Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked.

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

₁₀ No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

₁₁ For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways.

₁₂ In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

₁₃ You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

₁₄ Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.

₁₅ He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.

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