1He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust,
2I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
3That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
3Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague.
4He will cover thee with His pinions, and under His wings shalt thou take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.
4He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.
5Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
5You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
6nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the calamity that destroys at noon.
7A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; it shall not come nigh thee.

8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the recompense of the wicked.
8You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.
9For thou hast made the LORD who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation.
9Because you have made the LORD your dwelling— my refuge, the Most High—
10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
10no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.
11For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

14'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.
14“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him.
15He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him, and bring him to honour.
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 will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'
16With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”
