Psalm 91:1-16 ^JPS Psalm 91:1 O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and abidest in the shadow of the Almighty; ² I will say of the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust, ³ That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome 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 of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day; ⁶ Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday. ⁷ A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; it shall not come nigh thee. ⁸ Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the recompense of the wicked. ⁹ For 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 tent. ¹¹ For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. ¹² They shall bear thee upon their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. ¹³ Thou shalt tread upon the lion and asp; the young lion and the serpent 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 rescue him, and bring him to honour. ¹⁶ With long life will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'
