Whoever geos to the LORD for safety, whoever remains under the protection of the Almighty, ²Can say to him, "You are my defender and protector. You are my God; in you I trust." ³He will keep you safe from all hidden dangers and from all deadly diseases.
⁴He will cover you with his wings;
You will be safe in his care;
his faithfulness will protect and defend you.
⁵You need not to fear any dangers at night
or sudden attacks during the day
⁶or the plagues that strike in the dark
or the evils that kill in daylight.
⁷A thousand may fall dead beside you, ten thousand all around you,
but you will not be harmed.
⁸You will look and see
how the wicked are punished.
⁹You have made the LORD your defender,
the Most High your Protector,
¹⁰and so no disaster will strike you,
no violence will come near your home.
¹¹God will put his angels in charge of you
to protect you wherever you go.
¹²They will hold you up with their hands
to keep you from hurting your feet
on the stones.
¹³You will trample down lions and snakes,
fierce lions and poisonous snakes.
¹⁴God says, "I will save those who love me and
will protect those who acknowledge me as LORD.
¹⁵When they call to me, I will answer them;
when they are in trouble, I will be with them.
I will rescue them and honour them.
¹⁶I will reward them with long life;
I will save them."
Amen.
