| 1He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. | 1The one who lives in the shelter of the Most High, who rests in the shadow of the Almighty, |
| 2I will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!" | 2will say to the LORD, "You are my refuge, my fortress, and my God in whom I trust!" |
| 3For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper And from the deadly pestilence. | 3He will surely deliver you from the hunter's snare and from the destructive plague. |
| 4He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. | 4With his feathers he will cover you, under his wings you will find safety. His truth is your shield and armor. |
| 5You will not be afraid of the terror by night, Or of the arrow that flies by day; | 5You need not fear terror that stalks in the night, the arrow that flies in the day, |
| 6Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, Or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. | 6plague that strikes in the darkness, or calamity that destroys at noon. |
| 7A thousand may fall at your side And ten thousand at your right hand, But it shall not approach you. | 7If a thousand fall at your side or ten thousand at your right hand, it will not overcome you. |
| 8You will only look on with your eyes And see the recompense of the wicked. | 8Only observe it with your eyes, and you will see how the wicked are paid back. |
| 9For you have made the LORD, my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place. | 9"LORD, you are my refuge!" Because you chose the Most High as your dwelling place, |
| 10No evil will befall you, Nor will any plague come near your tent. | 10no evil will fall upon you, and no affliction will approach your tent, |
| 11For He will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all your ways. | 11for he will command his angels to protect you in all your ways. |
| 12They will bear you up in their hands, That you do not strike your foot against a stone. | 12With their hands they will lift you up so you will not trip over a stone. |
| 13You will tread upon the lion and cobra, The young lion and the serpent you will trample down. | 13You will stomp on lions and snakes; you will trample young lions and serpents. |
| 14"Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. | 14Because he has focused his love on me, I will deliver him. I will protect him because he knows my name. |
| 15"He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. | 15When he calls out to me, I will answer him. I will be with him in his distress. I will deliver him, and I will honor him. |
| 16"With a long life I will satisfy him And let him see My salvation." | 16I will satisfy him with long life; I will show him my deliverance. |
