| Chapter 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 noon-day.
|
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 thy eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
|
9 | Because thou hast made the LORD who 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 honor him.
|
16 | With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.
