You Are My Refuge and My Fortress

1He dwelling in the covering of the Most High, in the shadow of the Almighty shall he lodge.

2Saying to Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress: my God, I will trust in thee.

3For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, from the word of ruin.

4He will cover thee with his wing feathers, and under his wings thou shalt trust: his truth a shield and buckler.

5Thou Shalt not be afraid from terror the night; from the arrow that will fly the day;

6From the word that shall go in darkness: from the cutting off that shall lay waste the noon-day.

7A thousand shall fall from thy side, and ten thousand from thy right hand; and to thee it shall not reach.

8Only with thine eyes thou shalt look and thou shalt see the retribution of the unjust.

9For thou, O Jehovah, my trust; thou didst set the Most High thy refuge.

10Evil shall not approach to thee, and a blow shall not come near in thy tent.

11For he will command his messengers for thee, to watch thee in all thy ways.

12Upon the hands shall they lift thee up, lest thou shalt strike thy foot against a stone.

13Upon the lion and the asp, shalt thou tread: thou shalt tread down the young lion and the dragon.

14For he delighted in me and I will deliver him: I will exalt him, for he knew my name.

15He shall call me and I will answer him: I am with him in straits; I will deliver him and honor him.

16With length of days will I satisfy him, and I will cause him to look upon my salvation.
