91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High
^[a]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 [b]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.
