| 91:1 | Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High; | |
| 91:2 | Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope. | |
| 91:3 | He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease. | |
| 91:4 | You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation. | |
| 91:5 | You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day, | |
| 91:6 | Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high. | |
| 91:7 | You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. | |
| 91:8 | Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers. | |
| 91:9 | Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place; | |
| 91:10 | No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent. | |
| 91:11 | For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go. | |
| 91:12 | In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone. | |
| 91:13 | You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet. | |
| 91:14 | Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart. | |
| 91:15 | When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour. | |
| 91:16 | With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation. |
