Salmos 91

Safety of Abiding in the Presence of God

1 He *Ps. 27:5; 31:20; 32:7who dwells in the secret place of the Most High

Shall abide *Ps. 17:8; Is. 25:4; 32:2under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 *Ps. 142:5I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress;

My God, in Him I will trust."

3 Surely *Ps. 124:7; Prov. 6:5He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler

And from the perilous pestilence.

4 *Ps. 17:8He shall cover you with His feathers,

And under His wings you shall take refuge;

His truth shallbeyour shield and buckler.

5 *(Job 5:19; Ps. 112:7; Is. 43:2)You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,

Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,

Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,

And ten thousand at your right hand;

But it shall not come near you.

8 Only *Ps. 37:34; Mal. 1:5with your eyes shall you look,

And see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord, whois*Ps. 91:2my refuge,

Even the Most High, *Ps. 90:1your dwelling place,

10 *(Prov. 12:21)No evil shall befall you,

Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

11 *Ps. 34:7; Matt. 4:6; Luke 4:10; (Heb. 1:14)For He shall give His angels charge over you,

To keep you in all your ways.

12 In their hands they shall bear you up,

*Matt. 4:6; Luke 4:11Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,

The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

14 "Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;

I will set him on high, because he has *(Ps. 9:10)known My name.

15 He shall *Job 12:4; Ps. 50:15call upon Me, and I will answer him;

I willbe*Is. 43:2with him in trouble;

I will deliver him and honor him.

16 With long life I will satisfy him,

And show him My salvation."
