| 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 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 noon-day. --
|
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 thy eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. --
|
9 |
Because thou hast made the LORD who 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 honor him. --
|
16 |
With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation. --
