Psalm 91
|
|
| 91:1
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under
the shadow of the Almighty. |
(91:1-16) "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty...."
|
| 91:2
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him
will I trust. |
|
| 91:3
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the
noisome pestilence. |
|
| 91:4
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou
trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. |
|
| 91:5
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that
flieth by day; |
|
| 91:6
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction
that wasteth at noonday. |
|
| 91:7
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but
it shall not come nigh thee. |
|
| 91:8
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. |
|
| 91:9
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High,
thy habitation; |
|
| 91:10
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy
dwelling. |
|
| 91:11
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy
ways. |
|
| 91:12
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a
stone. |
|
| 91:13
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon
shalt thou trample under feet. |
"You shall walk upon the asp and
the basilisk, and you shall trample the lion and the dragon under foot"
(Unknown, 12th Century)
|
| 91:14
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.
|
| 91:15
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in
trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
|
| 91:16
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. |
