Psalms 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

3 Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague.

4 He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.

5 You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon.

7 Though a thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you.

8 You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling—my refuge, the Most High—

10 no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.

11 For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

12 They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent.

14 “Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him.

15 When he calls out to Me, 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.”

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.

1 He who sits under the umbrella of the Most High and abides under the shadow of the Almighty,

2 Who saith unto the LORD, My confidence and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.

3 For he delivereth me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his wings, and thy confidence shall be under his wings. His truth is shield and screen,

5 That thou shouldest not be afraid of the terror of the night, of the arrows that fly by day,

6 From the pestilence that creepeth in darkness, from the pestilence that wasteth in the south.

7 Though a thousand fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand, it shall not come upon thee.

8 Yea, thou shalt see thy lust with thine eyes, and shalt see it rewarded unto the wicked.

9 For the LORD is thy confidence, the most High is thy refuge.

10 No evil shall befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tabernacle.

11 For he hath commanded his angels concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways,

12 That they bear thee up in their hands, and that thou dash not thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt walk upon the lions and the vipers, and tread upon the young lions and dragons.

14 He desireth me, and I will help him: he knoweth my name, and I will defend him;

15 If he call upon me, I will hear him. I am with him in trouble; I will pluck him out, and make him honourable.

16 I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.
