1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, Under the shadow of the Almighty, will tarry,2 Saying of YahwehMy refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I will trust.
4 With his pinion, will he cover thee, And, under his wings, shalt thou seek refuge, A shield and buckler, is his faithfulness.
7 There shall fall, at thy side, a thousand, Yea, myriads, at thy right hand, Unto thee, shall it not come nigh;
9 Because, thou, Yahweh, my refuge,The Most High, thou last made thy dwelling-place,10 There shall not be sent unto thee misfortune, Nor shall, plague, come near into thy tent;
1 Yahweh, is my light and my salvation, Of whom shall I be afraid? Yahweh, is the refuge of my life, Of whom shall I be in dread?
2 Surely, he, is my rock and my salvation, My high towerI shall not be greatly shaken!
9 Thus be Yahweh a refuge for the crushed one, a refuge for times of destitution:

1 Yahweh! how have mine adversaries multiplied, Multitudes, are rising against me;2 Multitudes, are saying of my soul,No salvation for him in God. Selah.3 But, thou, Yahweh, art a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.4 With my voiceunto Yahweh, do I cry, and he hath answered me out of his holy mountain. Selah.5 I, laid me down and slept,I awoke, Surely, Yahweh, sustaineth me!6 I will not be afraid of myriads of people, who, round about, have set themselves against me.
30 As for GOD, blameless is his way, The speech of Yahweh hath been proved, A shield, he is to all who seek refuge in him.
35 Thus didst thou grant me, as a shield, thy salvation,and, thy right hand, sustained me, and, thy condescension, made me great.36 Thou didst widen my stepping-places under me, so that, mine ankles, faltered not.
1 Blessed be Yahweh, my Rock, who teacheth my hands to war, my fingers to fight:2 My lovingkindness and my stronghold, my high tower and my deliverermine! My buckler, and he in whom I have sought refuge,He that subdueth my people under me.
10 Who giveth victory unto kingsWho snatcheth away David his servant, from the calamitous sword.
11 That all may rejoice who seek refuge in thee, to times age-abiding, may shout in triumph, that thou wilt protect them, and they may leap for joy in thee who are lovers of thy Name.12 For, thou, wilt bless the righteous man, O Yahweh, As with an all-covering shieldwith good pleasure, wilt thou encompass him.
6 I, have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O GOD,Incline thine ear unto me, Hear thou my speech:7 Let thy lovingkindness be distinguished, thou Saviour of such as seek refuge from them who lift themselves up against thy right hand.8 Guard me, as the pupil of the eye,Under the shadow of thy wings, wilt thou hide me:9 From the face of lawless ones who have treated me with violence, the foes of my soul, who come round against me:
7 For, the king, is trusting in Yahweh, and, in the lovingkindness of the Highest, shall he not be shaken.8 Thy hand, will find out, all thy foes, Thine own right hand, will find out them who hate thee.9 Thou wilt make them like a furnace of fire, at the time of thy presence,Yahweh, in his anger, will swallow them up, and there shall consume them a fire:
7 Thou, art a hiding-place for me, From distress, wilt thou preserve me,With shouts of deliverance, wilt thou compass me about. Selah.
