1 He dwelling in the covering of the Most High, in the shadow of the Almighty shall he lodge. 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 Saying to Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress: my God, I will trust in thee. 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 will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, from the word of ruin. 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 will cover thee with his wing feathers, and under his wings thou shalt trust: his truth a shield 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.
5 Thou Shalt not be afraid from terror the night; from the arrow that will fly the day; You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 From the word that shall go in darkness: from the cutting off that shall lay waste the noon-day. 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 thousand shall fall from thy side, and ten thousand from thy right hand; and to thee it shall not reach. 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 Only with thine eyes thou shalt look and thou shalt see the retribution of the unjust. 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 Jehovah, my trust; thou didst set the Most High thy refuge. 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 Evil shall not approach to thee, and a blow shall not come near in thy tent. 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.
11 For he will command his messengers for thee, to watch thee in all thy ways. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;
12 Upon the hands shall they lift thee up, lest thou shalt strike thy foot against a stone. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 Upon the lion and the asp, shalt thou tread: thou shalt tread down the young lion and the dragon. You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot. You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 For he delighted in me and I will deliver him: I will exalt him, for he knew 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 me and I will answer him: I am with him in straits; I will deliver him and honor him. 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 With length of days will I satisfy him, and I will cause him to look upon my salvation. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
