| 7Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you. | 7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. |
| 8Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished. | 8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. |
| 9If you make the LORD your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, | 9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; |
| 10no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. | 10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. |
| 11For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. | 11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. |

| 15When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. | 15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. |
| 16I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.” | 16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. |
