Psalmen 91

¹O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and abidest in the shadow of the Almighty;
²I will say of the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust,
³That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
⁴He will cover thee with His pinions, and under His wings shalt thou take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.
⁵Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
⁶Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
⁷A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; it shall not come nigh thee.
⁸Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the recompense of the wicked.
⁹For thou hast made the LORD who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation.
¹⁰There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
¹¹For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
¹²They shall bear thee upon their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
¹³Thou 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.
¹⁵He 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.
¹⁶With long life will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'
