| 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. Psalm 92 A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day. --
