| Chapter 91 |
1 |
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. --
|
2 |
I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.' --
|
3 |
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, From the deadly pestilence. --
|
4 |
He will cover you with his pinions, Under his wings you will take refuge. His truth is a shield and a buckler. --
|
5 |
You will not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day; --
|
6 |
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday. --
|
7 |
A thousand shall fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it will not come near you. --
|
8 |
You will only look with your eyes, And see the reward of the wicked. --
|
9 |
For you, Yahweh, are my refuge! You have made the Most High your habitation. --
|
10 |
No evil will happen to you, Neither shall any plague come near your tent. --
|
11 |
For he will give his angels charge over you, To guard you in all your ways. --
|
12 |
They will bear you up in their hands, So that you won't dash your foot against a stone. --
|
13 |
You will tread on the lion and cobra. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot. --
|
14 |
Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name. --
|
15 |
He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him. --
|
16 |
I will satisfy him with long life, And show him my salvation. Psalm 92 A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. --
