###### 1
|
||
|
He who abides in the shelter of the Most High Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 2
|
||
|
I will say to Yahweh, "My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!"
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 3
|
||
|
For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper _And_ from the destructive pestilence.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 4
|
||
|
He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you will take refuge; His truth is a large shield and bulwark.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 5
|
||
|
You will not be afraid of terror by night, Or arrow that flies by day;
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 6
|
||
|
Of pestilence that moves in darkness, Or of destruction that devastates at noon.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 7
|
||
|
A thousand may fall at your side And ten thousand at your right hand, _But_ it shall not approach you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 8
|
||
|
You will only look on with your eyes And see the recompense of the wicked.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 9
|
||
|
For you have made Yahweh--my refuge, The Most High--your dwelling place.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 10
|
||
|
No evil will befall you, And no plague will come near your tent.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 11
|
||
|
For He will command His angels concerning you, To guard you in all your ways.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 12
|
||
|
On their hands they will bear you up, Lest you strike your foot against a stone.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 13
|
||
|
You will tread upon the fierce lion and cobra, The young lion and the serpent you will trample down.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 14
|
||
|
"Because he has loved Me, therefore I will protect him; I will set him _securely_ on high, because he has known My name.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 15
|
||
|
He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in _his_ distress; I will rescue him and honor him.
|
||
|
|
||
|
###### 16
|
||
|
With a long life I will satisfy him And I will show him My salvation."
