Psalm 91
91
My Refuge and My Fortress
1He who dwells in #See Ps. 32:7 the shelter of the Most High
will abide in #Ps. 121:5; [Isa. 25:4; 32:2]the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say#91:2 Septuagint He will say to the Lord, “My #ver. 9; See Ps. 14:6 refuge and my #See Ps. 18:2 fortress,
my God, in whom I #See Ps. 11:1trust.”
3For he will deliver you from #Ps. 124:7; 140:5; 141:9; Prov. 6:5the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
4He will #[1 Kgs. 8:7] cover you with his pinions,
and under his #See Ps. 17:8 wings you will #Ps. 57:1 find refuge;
his #See Ps. 36:5 faithfulness is #See Ps. 35:2a shield and buckler.
5 #
Prov. 3:23; Isa. 43:1; See Job 5:19-23 You will not fear #Song 3:8the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8You will only look with your eyes
and #See Ps. 37:34see the recompense of the wicked.
9Because you have made the Lord your #See Ps. 71:3 dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my #[See ver. 2 above]refuge#91:9 Or For you, O Lord, are my refuge! You have made the Most High your dwelling place—
10 # [ver. 5]; See Prov. 12:21 no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
#
Ps. 38:11
no plague come near your tent.
11 # Cited Matt. 4:6; Luke 4:10, 11 For he will command his #See Ps. 34:7 angels concerning you
to #Ex. 23:20guard you in all your ways.
12On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you #Prov. 3:23; [Ps. 37:24]strike your foot against a stone.
13You will tread on #[Dan. 6:23] the lion and the #[Acts 28:5] adder;
the young lion and #See Ps. 74:13 the serpent you will #Luke 10:19; [Mark 16:18]trample underfoot.
14“Because he #Deut. 7:7; 10:15 holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he #Ps. 9:10knows my name.
15When he #Job 12:4; See Ps. 50:15 calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and #1 Sam. 2:30; John 12:26honor him.
16With #Ps. 21:4; Deut. 6:2; 1 Kgs. 3:14; Prov. 3:2, 16 long life I will satisfy him
and #Ps. 50:23; [Ps. 118:14, 21]show him my salvation.”

Tehillim (Psa) 91
91
1You who live in the shelter of ‘Elyon,
who spend your nights in the shadow of Shaddai,
2who say to Adonai, “My refuge! My fortress!
My God, in whom I trust!” —
3he will rescue you from the trap of the hunter
and from the plague of calamities;
4he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his truth is a shield and protection.
5You will not fear the terrors of night
or the arrow that flies by day,
6or the plague that roams in the dark,
or the scourge that wreaks havoc at noon.
7A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand;
but it won’t come near you.
8Only keep your eyes open,
and you will see how the wicked are punished.
9For you have made Adonai, the Most High,
who is my refuge, your dwelling-place.
10No disaster will happen to you,
no calamity will come near your tent;
11for he will order his angels to care for you
and guard you wherever you go.
12They will carry you in their hands,
so that you won’t trip on a stone.
13You will tread down lions and snakes,
young lions and serpents you will trample underfoot.
14“Because he loves me, I will rescue him;
because he knows my name, I will protect him.
15He will call on me, and I will answer him.
I will be with him when he is in trouble.
I will extricate him and bring him honor.
16I will satisfy him with long life
and show him my salvation.”
