Psalm 91 (WEBP)

[1] He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
[2] I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.”
[3] For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence.
[4] He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart.
[5] You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day,
[6] nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.
[7] A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
[8] You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked.
[9] Because you have made Yahweh your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,
[10] no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.
[11] For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways.
[12] They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone.
[13] You will tread on the lion and cobra. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot.
[14] “Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.
[15] He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.
[16] I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.”

Young’s Literal Translation

Psalm 91 (YLT)

[1] He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,
[2] He is saying of Jehovah, ‘My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,’
[3] For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.
[4] With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler is His truth.
[5] Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,
[6] Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,
[7] There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.
[8] But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,
[9] (For Thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge,) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.
[10] Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,
[11] For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in all thy ways,
[12] On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a stone thy foot.
[13] On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.
[14] Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him-I set him on high, Because he hath known My name.
[15] He doth call Me, and I answer him, I am with him in distress, I deliver him, and honour him.
[16] With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
