91:1 As for you, the one who lives in the shelter of the Sovereign One, and resides in the protective shadow of the mighty king —

91:2 I say this about the Lord, my shelter and my stronghold, my God in whom I trust —

91:3 he will certainly rescue you from the snare of the hunter and from the destructive plague.

91:4 He will shelter you with his wings; you will find safety under his wings. His faithfulness is like a shield or a protective wall.

91:5 You need not fear the terrors of the night, the arrow that flies by day,

91:6 the plague that comes in the darkness, or the disease that comes at noon.

91:7 Though a thousand may fall beside you, and a multitude on your right side, it will not reach you.

91:8 Certainly you will see it with your very own eyes — you will see the wicked paid back.

91:9 For you have taken refuge in the Lord, my shelter, the Sovereign One.

91:10 No harm will overtake you; no illness will come near your home.

91:11 For he will order his angels to protect you in all you do.

91:12 They will lift you up in their hands, so you will not slip and fall on a stone.
