He who abides in the secret place of the Most High

Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord, 'He is my fortress,

my God. In Him I will trust.'

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.

He shall cover you with His feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge.

His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

You shall not be afraid of the terror by night

Nor of the arrow that flies by day.

Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness.

Nor of the destruction that walks in darkness. Nor of the destruction that lays at noonday

A thousand may fall at your side And ten thousand at your right hand. But it shall not come nigh you.

Only with your eyes shall you look and see the reward of the wicked.      Ps.91
