Psalm 91
English Standard Version
My Refuge and My Fortress
91 He who dwells in (A)the shelter of the Most High
will abide in (B)the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say[a] to the Lord, “My (C)refuge and my (D)fortress,
my God, in whom I (E)trust.”
3 For he will deliver you from (F)the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will (G)cover you with his pinions,
and under his (H)wings you will (I)find refuge;
his (J)faithfulness is (K)a shield and buckler.
5 (L)You will not fear (M)the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and (N)see the recompense of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord your (O)dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my (P)refuge[b]—
10 (Q)no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
(R)no plague come near your tent.
11 (S)For he will command his (T)angels concerning you
to (U)guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you (V)strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on (W)the lion and the (X)adder;
the young lion and (Y)the serpent you will (Z)trample underfoot.
14 “Because he (AA)holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he (AB)knows my name.
15 When he (AC)calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and (AD)honor him.
16 With (AE)long life I will satisfy him
and (AF)show him my salvation.”

Psalmul 91
1 Cel ce(A) stă sub ocrotirea Celui Preaînalt
şi se odihneşte la(B) umbra Celui Atotputernic
2 zice(C) despre Domnul: „El este locul meu de scăpare şi cetăţuia mea,
Dumnezeul meu în care mă încred!”
3 Da, El(D) te scapă de laţul vânătorului,
de ciumă şi de pustiirile ei.
4 El te va acoperi cu(E) penele Lui
şi te vei ascunde sub aripile Lui.
Căci scut şi pavăză este credincioşia Lui!
5 Nu(F) trebuie să te temi nici de groaza din timpul nopţii,
nici de săgeata care zboară ziua,
6 nici de ciuma care umblă în întuneric,
nici de molima care bântuie ziua namiaza mare.
7 O mie să cadă alături de tine
şi zece mii la dreapta ta,
dar de tine nu se va apropia.
8 Doar vei(G) privi cu ochii
şi vei vedea răsplătirea celor răi.
9 Pentru că zici: „Domnul este locul meu de adăpost(H)!”
şi faci din Cel Preaînalt turnul(I) tău de scăpare,
10 de aceea nicio(J) nenorocire nu te va ajunge,
nicio urgie nu se va apropia de cortul tău.
11 Căci(K) El va porunci îngerilor Săi
să te păzească în toate căile tale,
12 şi ei te vor duce pe mâini,
ca(L) nu cumva să-ţi loveşti piciorul de vreo piatră.
13 Vei păşi peste lei şi peste năpârci
şi vei călca peste pui de lei şi peste şerpi.
14 „Fiindcă Mă iubeşte”, zice Domnul, „de aceea îl voi izbăvi;
îl voi ocroti, căci cunoaşte(M) Numele Meu.
15 Când Mă va(N) chema, îi voi răspunde;
voi fi cu(O) el în strâmtorare,
îl voi izbăvi şi-l voi(P) proslăvi.
16 Îl voi sătura cu viaţă lungă
şi-i voi arăta mântuirea Mea”.
