Psalms 91

The Lord Is My Fortress

1 Live under the protection

of God Most High

and stay in the shadow

of God All-Powerful.

2 Then you will say to the Lord,

"You are my fortress,

my place of safety;

you are my God,

and I trust you."

3 The Lord will keep you safe

from secret traps

and deadly diseases.

4 He will spread his wings

over you

and keep you secure.

His faithfulness is like

a shield or a city wall.*91.4 city wall: One possible meaning for a difficult Hebrew word; it may possibly mean some kind of shield or weapon.
