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 Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust. |
3 | For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the deadly pestilence. |
4 | He will cover thee with his pinions, And under his wings shalt thou take refuge: His truth is a shield and a buckler. |
5 | Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, Nor for the arrow that flieth by day; |
6 | 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 | For thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge! Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation; |
10 | There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent. |
11 | For he will 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 serpent shalt thou trample under foot. |
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. |
