Psalms 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
=God will always protect you.

2 I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."
=God is my refuge and fortress.

3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
=God will always be there for you.

4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
=God will protect you with His kindness.

5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
=You will not afraid of anything.

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
=You will walk freely.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,

=Your enemies will fall before you.

8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

=No one can disturb you

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
=God will ask his angel to follow you

12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
=God will always be with you.

16 With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."
