91:1
He who dwells in the secret place of the Elyon Shall abide under the
tzel
Shaddai
(shadow of the Almighty).
91:2
I will say of ADONAI (יהוה), "He is my
refuge (מחסי) and my fortress (מצודתי); Elohai,
in Him I will trust."
91:3
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the
deadly pestilence.
91:4
He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His kenafayim (wings) you shall take
refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
91:5
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that
flies by day,
91:6
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that
lays waste at noonday.
91:7
A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
91:8
Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked.
91:9
Because you have made ADONAI (יהוה), who is my
refuge (מחסי), Even Elyon,
your dwelling place (מָעֹון),
91:10
No ra'ah (evil, disaster) shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
91:11
For He shall give His malakhim (messengers) charge over you, To keep you in all your
ways.
91:12
In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against
a stone.
91:13 You
shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you
shall trample underfoot.
91:14
"Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
91:15 He
shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I
will deliver him and honor him.
91:16 With
long life I will satisfy him, And show him My Yeshuati
(ישׁועתי)."
