| 1 | Whosoeuer sitteth vnder the couer of the most highest: he shal abide vnder the shadowe of the almightie. | He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. | Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. | |
| 2 | I wyll say vnto God, thou art my hope and my fortresse: my Lorde, in whom I wyll trust. | I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” | I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” | |
| 3 | For he wyll delyuer thee from the snare of the hunter: and from the noysome pestilence. | For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. | Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. | |
| 4 | He wyll couer thee vnder his wynges, & thou shalt be safe vnder his fethers: his faythfulnesse shalbe thy shielde and buckler. | He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. | He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. | |

| 6 | Nor of any pestilence that walketh in the darknesse: nor of any deadly fyt that destroyeth at hygh noone. | nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. | nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. | |
| 7 | A thousande shall fall beside thee, and ten thousande at thy ryght hande: but it shall not come nygh thee. | A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. | A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. | |
| 8 | Thou only with thine eyes shalt beholde: & see the rewarde of the vngodly. | You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. | You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. | |
| 9 | For thou O God art my hope: thou hast set thine habitation very hygh. | Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place— the Most High, who is my refuge— | If you say, “The LORD is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, | |
| 10 | There shall no euyll lyght on thee: neither shall any plague come nye thy dwellyng. | no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent. | no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. | |

| 14 | Because he hath set greatly his loue vpon me, therfore wyll I deliuer hym: I wyll set hym vp out of all daunger, because he hath knowen my name. | “Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. | “Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. | |
| 15 | He shall call vpon me, and I wyll heare hym: yea I am with hym in trouble, I wyll deliuer hym, and bryng hym to honour. | When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. | He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. | |
| 16 | I wyll satisfie hym with a long lyfe: and I wyll cause hym to see my saluation. | With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” | With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” | |
