^5 (A)You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

^2 (A)When you pass through the waters, ^(B)I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you ^(C)walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.

^19 (A)He shall deliver you in six troubles,
Yes, in seven ^(B)no evil shall touch you.
^20 (C)In famine He shall redeem you from death,
And in war from the ^[a]power of the sword.
^21 (D)You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue,
And you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.
²² You shall laugh at destruction and famine,
And ^(E)you shall not be afraid of the ^(F)beasts of the earth.
^23 (G)For you shall have a covenant with the stones of the field,
And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.
²⁴ You shall know that your tent is in peace;
You shall visit your dwelling and find nothing amiss.
²⁵ You shall also know that ^(H)your descendants shall be many,
And your offspring ^(I)like the grass of the earth.
^26 (J)You shall come to the grave at a full age,
As a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.
²⁷ Behold, this we have ^(K)searched out;
It is true.
Hear it, and know for yourself.”

^23 (A)Then you will walk safely in your way,
And your foot will not stumble.
²⁴ When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
^25 (B)Do not be afraid of sudden terror,
Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;

^7 (A)He will not be afraid of evil tidings;
His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.

27 The Lord is my ^(A)light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The ^(B)Lord is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
² When the wicked came against me
To ^(C)eat^[a] up my flesh,
My enemies and foes,
They stumbled and fell.
^3 (D)Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident.

28 The ^(A)wicked flee when no one pursues,
But the righteous are bold as a lion.
