91 | Psalms | ||
1 | He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, who abides in the shadow of the Almighty, | God our Protector. Psalm 91(v90) | |
2 | will say to Yahweh, "My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." | ||
3 | For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence; | ||
4 | he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. | ||
5 | You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, | ||
6 | nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. | ||
7 | A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. | ||
8 | You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. | ||
9 | Because you have made Yahweh your refuge, the Most High your habitation, | ||
10 | no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent. | ||
11 | For he will give his angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. | ||
12 | On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. | ||
13 | You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot. | ||
14 | Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. | ||
15 | When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honour him. | ||
16 | With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation. | ||
