"He that
dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say
of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in whom I trust.
For He will
deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
And from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover
thee with His pinions,
And under His wings shalt thou take refuge:
His truth is
a shield and a buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night,
Nor for the
arrow that flieth by day;
For the pestilence that walketh in darkness,
Nor for the
destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side,
And ten thousand
at thy right hand;
But it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine
eyes shalt thou behold,
And see the reward of the wicked.
"For Thou, O Jehovah,
art my refuge!
Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation;
There shall
no evil befall thee,
Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
For He will
give His angels charge over thee,
To keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall
bear thee up in their hands,
Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt
tread upon the lion and adder:
The young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample underfoot.
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.
He shall call
upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble:
I will deliver him, and honor him.
With long life
will I satisfy him,
And show him My salvation."
Psalm 91, A. R. V.
