¹ He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven. ² He shall say to the Lord, Thou art my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him. ³ For he shall deliver thee from the snare of the hunters, from every troublesome matter. ⁴ He shall overshadow thee with his shoulders, and thou shalt trust under his wings: his truth shall cover thee with a shield. ⁵ Thou shalt not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day; ⁶ nor of the evil thing that walks in darkness; nor of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day. ⁷ A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. ⁸ Only with thine eyes shalt thou observe and see the reward of sinners.

⁹ For thou, O Lord, art my hope: thou, my soul, hast made the Most High thy refuge. ¹⁰ No evils shall come upon thee, and no scourge shall draw night to thy dwelling. ¹¹ For he shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. ¹² They shall bear thee up on their hands, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. ¹³ Thou shalt tread on the asp and basilisk: and thou shalt trample on the lion and dragon. ¹⁴ For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name. ¹⁵ He shall call upon me, and I will hearken to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him. ¹⁶ I will satisfy him with length of days, and shew him my salvation.
