91 Anyone dwelling in the secret place of the Most High
Will lodge under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say to Ahv'ah {Heb. Yahvah}: “You are my refuge and my stronghold,
My Yahavah {Yah'-ha-vah'} in whom I trust.”
3 For he will rescue you from the trap of the birdcatcher,
From the destructive pestilence.
4 With his pinions he will cover you,
And under his wings you will take refuge.
His faithfulness will be a large shield and a protective wall.
5 You will not fear the terrors of the night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 Nor the pestilence that stalks in the gloom,
Nor the destruction that ravages at midday.
7 A thousand will fall at your side
And ten thousand at your right hand,
But to you it will not come near.
8 You will only see it with your eyes
As you witness the punishment of the wicked.
9 Because you said: “Ahv'ah {Heb. Yahvah} is my refuge,”
You have made the Most High your dwelling;
10 No disaster will befall you,
And no plague will come near your tent.
11 For he will give his angels a command concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways.
12 They will carry you on their hands,
So that you may not strike your foot against a stone.
13 On the young lion and the cobra you will tread;
You will trample underfoot the maned lion and the big snake.
14 Yahavah {Yah'-ha-vah'} said: “Because he has affection for me, I will rescue him.
I will protect him because he knows my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him.
I will be with him in distress.
I will rescue him and glorify him.
16 I will satisfy him with long life,
And I will cause him to see my acts of salvation.”
