Psalm 91

NLT

MSG

1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
1 You who sit down in the High God's presence, spend the night in Shaddai's shadow,
2 This I declare about the LORD : He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.
2 Say this: "God, you're my refuge. I trust in you and I'm safe!"
3 For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.
3 That's right - he rescues you from hidden traps, shields you from deadly hazards.
4 He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
4 His huge outstretched arms protect you - under them you're perfectly safe; his arms fend off all harm.
5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day.
5 Fear nothing - not wild wolves in the night, not flying arrows in the day,
6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
6 Not disease that prowls through the darkness, not disaster that erupts at high noon.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you.
7 Even though others succumb all around, drop like flies right and left, no harm will even graze you.
8 Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished.
8 You'll stand untouched, watch it all from a distance, watch the wicked turn into corpses.
9 If you make the LORD your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter,
9 Yes, because God's your refuge, the High God your very own home,
10 no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home.
10 Evil can't get close to you, harm can't get through the door.
11 For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go.
11 He ordered his angels to guard you wherever you go.
12 They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
12 If you stumble, they'll catch you; their job is to keep you from falling.
13 You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!
13 You'll walk unharmed among lions and snakes, and kick young lions and serpents from the path.
14 The LORD says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name.
14 "If you'll hold on to me for dear life," says God, "I'll get you out of any trouble. I'll give you the best of care if you'll only get to know and trust me.
15 When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them.
15 Call me and I'll answer, be at your side in bad times; I'll rescue you, then throw you a party.
16 I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.”
16 I'll give you a long life, give you a long drink of salvation!"
