Psalm 91

Revised Version 1895

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abideH3427 underH3427 the shadowH6738 of the AlmightyH7706.

2I will sayH559 of the LORDH3068, He is my refugeH4268 and my fortress; my GodH430, in whom I trustH982.

3For he shall deliverH5337 thee from the snareH6341 of the fowlerH3353, and from the noisome pestilenceH1698.

4He shall cover thee with his pinionsH84, and underH8478 his wingsH3671 shalt thou takeH2620 refugeH2620: his truthH571 is a shieldH6793 and a buckler.

5Thou shalt notH3808 be afraidH3372 for the terrorH6343 by nightH3915, norH3808 for the arrowH2671 that flieth by dayH3119;

6For the pestilenceH1698 that walketh in darknessH652, nor for the destructionH6986 that wasteth at noonday.

7A thousandH505 shall fallH5307 at thy sideH6654, and tenH7233 thousandH505 at thy rightH3225 handH3225; but it shall notH3808 comeH5066 nigh thee.

8OnlyH7535 with thine eyesH5869 shalt thou beholdH7200, and seeH7200 the reward of the wickedH7563.

9For thou, O LORDH3068, art my refugeH4268! thou hast madeH7760 the Most High thy habitationH4583;

10There shall noH3808 evilH7451 befallH579 thee, neitherH3808 shall anyH3808 plagueH5061 comeH7126 nigh thy tentH168.

11For he shall giveH6680 his angelsH4397 chargeH6680 over thee, to keepH8104 thee in allH3605 thy waysH1870.

12They shall bearH5375 thee upH5375 in their handsH3709, lestH6435 thou dash thy footH7272 againstH5921 a stoneH68.

13Thou shalt treadH1869 uponH5921 the lionH3715 and adder: the youngH3715 lionH3715 and the serpentH8577 shalt thou trampleH7429 underH5921 feet.

14BecauseH3588 he hath setH7682 his love upon meH7682, therefore will I deliverH6403 him: I will setH7682 him on highH7682, becauseH3588 he hath knownH3045 my nameH8034.

15He shall callH7121 uponH7121 meH7121, and I will answerH6030 him; I will be with him in troubleH6869: I will deliverH2502 him, and honour him.

16With longH753 lifeH3117 will I satisfyH7646 him, and shew him my salvationH3444.
