Psalms 91

¹ He that dwelleth 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 will I trust.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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