Psalms 91:1
16 verses
- 1
He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,
- 2
He is saying of Jehovah, `My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,'
- 3
For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
- 4
With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.
- 5
Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,
- 6
Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,
- 7
There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.
- 8
But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,
- 9
(For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge,) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.
- 10
Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,
- 11
For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in all thy ways,
- 12
On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a stone thy foot.
- 13
On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.
- 14
Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him -- I set him on high, Because he hath known My name.
- 15
He doth call Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honour him.
- 16
With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
