## In the Shadow of the Almighty 

###### 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."
