Psalm 91
Amplified Bible
Security of the One Who Trusts in the Lord.
91 He who [a]dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will remain secure and rest in the shadow of the Almighty [whose power no enemy can withstand].
2
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust [with great confidence, and on whom I rely]!”
3
For He will save you from the trap of the fowler,
And from the deadly pestilence.
4
He will cover you and completely protect you with His pinions,
And under His wings you will find refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and a wall.
5
You will not be afraid of the terror of night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
6
Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction (sudden death) that lays waste at noon.
7
A thousand may fall at your side
And ten thousand at your right hand,
But danger will not come near you.
8
You will only [be a spectator as you] look on with your eyes
And witness the [divine] repayment of the wicked [as you watch safely from the shelter of the Most High].
9
Because you have made the Lord, [who is] my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,(A)
10
No evil will befall you,
Nor will any plague come near your tent.
11
For He will command His angels in regard to you,
To protect and defend and guard you in all your ways [of obedience and service].
12
They will lift you up in their hands,
So that you do not [even] strike your foot against a stone.(B)
13
You will tread upon the lion and cobra;
The young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.(C)
14
“Because he set his love on Me, therefore I will save him;
I will set him [securely] on high, because he knows My name [he confidently trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never abandon him, no, never].
15
“He will call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
16
“With a long life I will satisfy him
And I will let him see My salvation.”

Salmos 91
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Seguridad del que confía en el Señor
91 El que habita al amparo del Altísimo[a](A)
Morará a la sombra del Omnipotente(B).
2 Diré yo al Señor: «Refugio mío(C) y fortaleza mía(D),
Mi Dios, en quien confío(E)».
3 Porque Él te libra del lazo del cazador(F)
Y de la pestilencia mortal(G).
4 Con Sus plumas te cubre(H),
Y bajo Sus alas hallas refugio(I);
Escudo y baluarte(J) es Su fidelidad[b](K).
5 No temerás(L) el terror de la noche(M),
Ni la flecha que vuela de día(N),
6 Ni la pestilencia(O) que anda en tinieblas,
Ni la destrucción(P) que hace estragos en medio del día.
7 Aunque caigan mil a tu lado
Y diez mil a tu diestra,
A ti no se acercará(Q).
8 Con tus ojos mirarás
Y verás la paga de los impíos(R).
9 Porque has puesto al Señor, que es mi refugio(S),
Al Altísimo, por tu habitación(T).
10 No te sucederá ningún mal(U),
Ni plaga se acercará a tu morada.
11 Pues Él dará órdenes a Sus ángeles acerca de ti(V),
Para que te guarden en todos tus caminos.
12 En sus manos te llevarán,
Para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra(W).
13 Sobre el león y la cobra pisarás(X);
Pisotearás al cachorro de león y a la serpiente.
14 «Porque en Mí ha puesto su amor(Y), Yo entonces lo libraré;
Lo exaltaré(Z), porque ha conocido Mi nombre(AA).
15 Me invocará(AB), y le responderé;
Yo estaré con él en la angustia;
Lo rescataré y lo honraré(AC);
16 Lo saciaré de larga vida(AD),
Y le haré ver Mi salvación(AE)».
