Chapter 91

1


 

  Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;  

 

 

-

2


 

  Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.  

 

 

-

3


 

  He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.  

 

 

-

4


 

  You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.  

 

 

-

5


 

  You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,  

 

 

-

6


 

  Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.  

 

 

-

7


 

  You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;  

 

 

-

10


 

  No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.  

 

 

-

11


 

  For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.  

 

 

-

12


 

  In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.  

 

 

-

13


 

  You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.  

 

 

-

15


 

  When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.  

 

 

-

16


 

  With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.
