He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. |
|
2
|
I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” |
|
3
|
Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague. |
|
4
|
He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart. |
|
5
|
You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, |
|
6
|
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon. |
|
7
|
Though a thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you. |
|
8
|
You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked. |
|
9
|
Because you have made the LORD your dwelling—my refuge, the Most High— |
|
10
|
no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent. |
|
11
|
For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. |
|
12
|
They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. |
|
13
|
You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent. |
|
14
|
“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him. |
|
15
|
When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him. |
|
16
|
With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.” |
