XCI SECURITY OF HIM WHO TRUST IN JUSTICE
[1] HE that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High
Shall〖Or, That abideth ... Almighty; Even I &c.〗 abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
[2] I will say of Jehovah, 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,
And from the deadly pestilence.
[4] He will cover thee with his pinions,
And under his wings shalt thou take refuge:
His truth is a shield and a buckler.
[5] Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night,
Nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
[6] For the pestilence that walketh in darkness,
Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
[7] A thousand shall fall at thy side,
And ten thousand at thy right hand;
But it shall not come nigh thee.
[8] Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold,
And see the reward of the wicked.
[9] For〖Or, Because thou hast said, Jehovah is my refuge.〗 thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge!
Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation;
[10] There shall no evil befall thee,
Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
[11] For he will give his angels charge over thee,
To keep thee in all thy ways.
[12] They shall bear thee up in their hands,
Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
[13] Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder:
The young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under foot.
[14] Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him:
I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
[15] He shall call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble:
I will deliver him, and honor him.
[16] With long life will I satisfy him,
And show him my salvation.
