Psalms 91:6-16

6 or the plagues that strike in the dark or the evils that kill in daylight.
7 A thousand may fall dead beside you, ten thousand all around you, but you will not be harmed.
8 You will look and see how the wicked are punished.
9 You have made the Lord your defender, the Most High your protector,
10 and so no disaster will strike you, no violence will come near your home.
11 God will put his angels in charge of you 1 to protect you wherever you go.
12 They will hold you up with their hands 2 to keep you from hurting your feet on the stones.
13 You will trample down lions and snakes, 3 fierce lions and poisonous snakes.
14 God says, "I will save those who love me and will protect those who acknowledge me as Lord.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will rescue them and honor them.
16 I will reward them with long life; I will save them."
