Psalms 91

1 (90-1) <The praise of a canticle for David.> He that dwelleth in the aid of the most High, shall abide under the protection of the God of Jacob.

1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 (90-2) He shall say to the Lord: Thou art my protector, and my refuge: my God, in him will I trust.

2 I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

3 (90-3) For he hath delivered me from the snare of the hunters: and from the sharp word.

3 Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

4 (90-4) He will overshadow thee with his shoulders: and under his wings thou shalt trust.

4 He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

5 (90-5) His truth shall compass thee with a shield: thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night.

5 You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 (90-6) Of the arrow that flieth in the day, of the business that walketh about in the dark: of invasion, or of the noonday devil.

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

7 (90-7) A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: but it shall not come nigh thee.

7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.

8 (90-8) But thou shalt consider with thy eyes: and shalt see the reward of the wicked.

8 You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 (90-9) Because thou, O Lord, art my hope: thou hast made the most High thy refuge.

9 If you say, “The LORD is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling,

10 (90-10) There shall no evil come to thee: nor shall the scourge come near thy dwelling.

10 no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.

11 (90-11) For he hath given his angels charge over thee; to keep thee in all thy ways.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;

12 (90-12) In their hands they shall bear thee up: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

12 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

13 (90-13) Thou shalt walk upon the asp and the basilisk: and thou shalt trample under foot the lion and the dragon.

13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14 (90-14) Because he hoped in me I will deliver him: I will protect him because he hath known my name.

14 “Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

15 (90-15) He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: I am with him in tribulation, I will deliver him, and I will glorify him.

15 He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

16 (90-16) I will fill him with length of days; and I will shew him my salvation.

16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
