✧He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. ✧2I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” ✧3Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague. ✧4He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart. ✧5You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, ✧6nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon. ✧7Though a thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you. ✧8You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked. ✧9Because you have made the LORD your dwelling— my refuge, the Most High— ✧10no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent. ✧11For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. ✧12They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. ✧13You will tread on the lion and cobra; you will trample the young lion and serpent. ✧14“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him. ✧15When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him. ✧16With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”
