91:5 You won't need to worry about dangers at night or arrows during the day. |
91:6 And you won't fear diseases that strike in the dark or sudden disaster at noon. |
91:7 You will not be harmed, though thousands fall all around you. |
91:8 And with your own eyes you will see the punishment of the wicked. |
91:9 The LORD Most High is your fortress. Run to him for safety, |
91:10 and no terrible disasters will strike you or your home. |
91:11 God will command his angels to protect you wherever you go. |
91:12 They will carry you in their arms, and you won't hurt your feet on the stones. |
91:13 You will overpower the strongest lions and the most deadly snakes. |
91:14 The Lord says, "If you love me and truly know who I am, I will rescue you and keep you safe. |
91:15 When you are in trouble, call out to me. I will answer and be there to protect and honor you. |
91:16 You will live a long life and see my saving power." |
