Psalms 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 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.
