Only Version ❧ CM/CMD · 8·6·8·6 (D)
1 He that within the secret place of the most high doth dwell, he under the Almighty’s shade shall lodge himself full well. 2 My hope he is, and my fortress, I to the Lord will say: he is my God; and I in him my confidence will stay.
3 Surely out of the fowler’s snare he shall deliver thee, also thee from the pestilence infectious shall free. 4 He with his feathers hide thee shall, under his wings shall be thy trust: his truth shall be a shield and buckler unto thee.
5 Thou shalt not be dismay’d with fear for terror by the night: nor for the arrow that with speed flieth in the day light; 6 Nor for the pestilence that doth walk in the darkness fast: nor for the sore destruction that doth at noon day waste.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand also at thy right hand, but it shall not approach thee near unto. 8 Only thou with thine eyes this thing attentively shalt view: also thou shalt behold how that the wicked have their due.
9 Because Jehovah who hath been my safe protection, ev’n the most high, thou hast him made thine habitation. 10 Not anything that evil is there shall to thee befall, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling place at all.
11 Because that he his angels, will command concerning thee: in all thy ways where thou dost walk thy keeper for to be. 12 They shall support thee in their hands: lest thou against a stone 13 should’st dash thy foot. Thou trample shalt on th’ adder, and lion:
the lion young and dragon thou shalt tread under thy feet. 14 I will deliver him, for he on me his love hath set: because that he hath known my name, I will him set on high. 15 Upon me he shall call in pray’r, and answer him will I:
I will be with him when he is in troublesome distress, and I to him will honour give, when I shall him release. 16 With days of long continuance I’ll give to him his fill: and also my salvation declare to him I will.
