Psalm 91

Tree of Life Version

¹ He who dwells in the shelter of Elyon,
will abide in the shadow of Shaddai.
² I will say of Adonai,
“He is my refuge and my fortress,
    my God, in whom I trust.
³ For He will rescue you from the hunter’s trap
and from the deadly pestilence.
⁴ He will cover you with His feathers,
and under His wings you will find refuge.
His faithfulness is body armor and shield.
⁵ You will not fear the terror by night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
⁶ nor the plague that stalks in darkness,
    nor the scourge that lays waste at noon.
⁷ A thousand may fall at your side,
and ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
⁸ You will only look on with your eyes
and see the wicked paid back.
⁹ For you have made Elyon your dwelling,
    even Adonai, who is my refuge,
¹⁰ so no evil will befall you
    nor any plague come near your tent.
¹¹ For He will give His angels charge over you,
to guard you in all your ways.
¹² Upon their hands they will lift you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.^[a]
13 You will tread upon the lion and cobra,
trample the young lion and serpent.
