He that dwelleth in covert of the Most High{HR}Abideth in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress, my God;{HR}I will confide in him.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the fowler’s snare,{HR}From mischiefs’ plague.
With his feathers will he cover thee,{HR}And under his wings shalt thou trust:{HR}A shield and buckler [is] his truth.
Thou shalt not be afraid for terror by night,{HR}For arrow flying by day,
For plague walking in darkness,{HR}For destruction waiting at noon.
A thousand shall fall at thy side,{HR}And a myriad at thy right hand;{HR}To thee it shall not come nigh.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold{HR}And see the requital of wicked [men].
Because thou hast made Jehovah, my refuge,{HR}The Most High, thy habitation,
No evil shall befall thee,{HR}And no plague shall draw near thy tent.
For his angels he will charge concerning thee,{HR}To keep thee in all thy ways;
Upon [their] hands they shall bear thee,{HR}Lest thou strike against the stone thy foot.
On lion and adder thou shalt tread;{HR}Thou shalt trample young lion and dragon.
Because he hath set his love on me,{HR}I too will deliver him;{HR}I will set him on high,{HR}Because he knoweth my name.
He shall call me, and I will answer him;{HR}With him [am] I in trouble;{HR}I will deliver him and glorify him.
[With] length of days will I satisfy him,{HR}And show him my salvation.
