91:1  HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable {and} fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand].

91:2  I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean {and} rely, {and} in Him I [confidently] trust!

91:3  For [then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.

91:4  [Then] He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust {and} find refuge; His truth {and} His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler.

91:5  You shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day,

91:6  Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction {and} sudden death that surprise {and} lay waste at noonday.

91:7  A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you.

91:8  Only a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High] as you witness the reward of the wicked.

91:9  Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,

91:10  There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague {or} calamity come near your tent.

91:11  For He will give His angels [especial] charge over you to accompany {and} defend {and} preserve you in all your ways [of obedience and service].

91:12  They shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.

91:13  You shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent shall you trample underfoot.

91:14  Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows {and} understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].

91:15  He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

91:16  With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation.
