Psalm 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.
