Psalm 91 — Legacy Standard Bible

In the Shadow of the Almighty

91He who abides in the ^ashelter of the Most HighWill abide in the ^bshadow of the Almighty.²I will say to Yahweh, “My ^arefuge and my ^bfortress,My God, in whom I ^ctrust!”³For it is He who delivers you from the ^asnare of the trapperAnd from the destructive ^bpestilence.⁴He will ^acover you with His pinions,And ^bunder His wings you will take refuge;His ^ctruth is a ^dlarge shield and bulwark.⁵You ^awill not be afraid of ^bterror by night,Or ^carrow that flies by day;⁶Of ^apestilence that moves in darkness,Or of ^bdestruction that devastates at noon.⁷A thousand may fall at your sideAnd ten thousand at your right hand,But ^ait shall not approach you.⁸You will only look on with your eyesAnd ^asee the recompense of the wicked.⁹¹For you have made Yahweh—^amy refuge,The Most High—^byour dwelling place.¹⁰^aNo evil will befall you,And no plague will come near your ¹tent.¹¹For He will command ^aHis angels concerning you,To guard you in all your ways.¹²On their hands they will ^abear you up,Lest you strike your foot against a stone.¹³You will ^atread upon the fierce lion and cobra,The young lion and the ¹serpent you will trample down.¹⁴“^aBecause he has loved Me, therefore I will protect him;I will ^bset him securely on high, because he has ^cknown My name.¹⁵“He will ^acall upon Me, and I will answer him;I will be with him in his ¹distress;I will rescue him and ^bhonor him.¹⁶“With ¹a ^along life I will satisfy himAnd ^bI will show him My salvation.”
