He that dwelleth in the secret place of the
Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord,
“He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in Him will I trust.” Surely
He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome
pestilence. He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt
thou trust; His truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid
of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day, nor of
the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that layeth
waste at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy
right hand, but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes
shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made
the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation, there
shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For
He shall give His angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways. They
shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou
shalt tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou
trample underfoot. “Because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore
will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known My name. He
shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I
will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him,
and show him My salvation.”
