Psalms 91:2

Safety of Abiding in the Presence of God

1 He ^awho dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide ^bunder the shadow of the Almighty.

2 ^aI will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”

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.
