Psalms 91

The Bible in Basic English BBE

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.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 1 He that dwelleth in the seter Elyon (covering, hiding place of the Most High) shall abide under the tzel Shaddai (shadow of the Almighty).

2 I will say of Hashem, He is my refuge and my fortress; Elohai (my G-d); in Him will I trust.

3 Surely He shall save thee from the pach yakosh ([deadly] snare of the fowler), and from the devastating dever (plague).

4 He shall cover thee with His evrah (pinion, flight feathers), and under His kenafayim (wings) shalt thou find defense; His Emes shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid of the pachad (terror) by lailah; nor of the khetz (arrow) that flieth yomam (by day);

6 Nor for the dever (plague) that walketh in darkness; nor for the ketev (pestilence, destruction) that destroyeth at tzohorayim (noon).

7 An elef (thousand) may fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy yamin (right hand); but it shall not come near thee.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the shillumah (recompense, retribution) of the resha’im.

9 Because thou hast made Hashem, which is my refuge, even Elyon, thy ma’on (habitation, dwelling; see Yn 14:2 OJBC)

10 There shall no ra’ah (evil, disaster) befall thee, neither shall any nega come near thy ohel.

11 For He shall give charge to His malachim (angels) concerning thee, to be shomer over thee in kol drakhim of thee.

12 They [the malachim of Hashem] shall bear thee up on their palms, lest thou dash thy regel against an even (stone).

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the tannin (serpent) shalt thou trample under foot.

14 Because he hath set his longing upon Me, therefore will I rescue him; I will set him on high, because he hath da’as of Shmi (My Name).

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

16 With orech yamim (length of days, long life) will I satisfy him, and show him My Yeshuah (salvation).
