¹Whoever lives in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. ²I will say to the LORD,
"You are my safe place and my fortress.
You are my God, and I trust in you." ³He will surely save you from the bird hunter's trap
and from deadly sickness. ⁴He will cover you with his feathers.
You will find safety under his wings.
His faithfulness is a shield and a wall. ⁵You won't be afraid of the terror at night.
You won't fear the arrow that flies by day. ⁶You won't fear the sickness that sneaks in the dark,
or the disaster that destroys at noon. ⁷A thousand may fall at your side.
Ten thousand may fall at your right hand.
But no harm will come near you. ⁸You will only watch with your eyes.
You will see the wicked get what they deserve. ⁹Because you have made the LORD your home,
my safe place, the Most High, ¹⁰no evil will happen to you.
No sickness will come near your tent. ¹¹For he will command his angels about you.
They will guard you in all your ways. ¹²They will lift you up in their hands,
so you won't hit your foot on a stone. ¹³You will step on the lion and the cobra.
You will stomp on the young lion and the snake. ¹⁴"He loves me, so I will save him.
He knows my name, so I will protect him. ¹⁵When he calls to me, I will answer him.
I will be with him in trouble.
I will save him and honor him. ¹⁶I will fill him with a long life.
I will show him how I save."
