Psalm 91 1Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Hebrew Shaddai

2I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

3Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

4He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

5You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

6nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

7A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.

8You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.

9If you say, “The LORD is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling,

10no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.

11For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;

12they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

13You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14“Because he That is, probably the king loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

15He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”

Psalm 92In Hebrew texts 92:1-15 is numbered 92:2-16. 1A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High,

2proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

3to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp.

4For you make me glad by your deeds, LORD ; I sing for joy at what your hands have done.

5How great are your works, LORD, how profound your thoughts!

6Senseless people do not know, fools do not understand,

7that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.

8But you, LORD, are forever exalted.

9For surely your enemies, LORD, surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10You have exalted my horn Horn here symbolizes strength. like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured on me.

11My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.

12The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;

13planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, 15proclaiming, “The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.”
