3 Surely ^aHe shall deliver you from the snare of the¹ fowler
And from the perilous pestilence. ‡

4 ^aHe shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and¹ buckler. ‡

5 ^aYou shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day, ‡

6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.

8 Only ^awith your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked. ‡

9 Because you have made the Lord, who is ^amy refuge,
Even the Most High, ^byour dwelling place, ‡
