Psalm 91

Whoever lives under the shelter of Elyon
    will remain in the shadow of Shadday.
I will say to Yahweh,
    “You are my Machseh and my Metsuda, my Elohim in whom I trust.”

He is the one who will rescue you from hunters’ traps
    and from deadly plagues.
He will cover you with his feathers,
    and under his wings you will find refuge.
        His truth is your shield and armor.

You do not need to fear
    terrors of the night,
    arrows that fly during the day,
plagues that roam the dark,
    epidemics that strike at noon.
        They will not come near you,
            even though a thousand may fall dead beside you
                or ten thousand at your right side.

You only have to look with your eyes
    to see the punishment of wicked people.

You, O Yahweh, are my Machseh!

You have made Elyon your home.
10 No harm will come to you.
    No sickness will come near your house.
11 He will put his angels in charge of you
    to protect you in all your ways.
12 They will carry you in their hands
    so that you never hit your foot against a rock.
13 You will step on lions and cobras.
    You will trample young lions and snakes.

14 Because you love me, I will rescue you.
    I will protect you because you know my name.
15 When you call to me, I will answer you.
    I will be with you when you are in trouble.
    I will save you and honor you.
16 I will satisfy you with a long life.
    I will show you how I will save you.
