2. I will say to the Lord, "You are my safe and strong place, my God, in Whom I trust."
3. For it is He Who takes you away from the trap, and from the killing sickness.
4. He will cover you with His wings. And under His wings you will be safe. He is faithful like a safe-covering and a strong wall.
5. You will not be afraid of trouble at night, or of the arrow that flies by day.
6. You will not be afraid of the sickness that walks in darkness, or of the trouble that destroys at noon.
7. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand. But it will not come near you.
8. You will only look on with your eyes, and see how the sinful are punished.
9. Because you have made the Lord your safe place, and the Most High the place where you live,
10. nothing will hurt you. No trouble will come near your tent.
11. For He will tell His angels to care for you and keep you in all your ways.
12. They will hold you up in their hands. So your foot will not hit against a stone.
13. You will walk upon the lion and the snake. You will crush under your feet the young lion and the snake.
14. Because he has loved Me, I will bring him out of trouble. I will set him in a safe place on high, because he has known My name.
15. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will take him out of trouble and honor him.
16. I will please him with a long life. And I will show him My saving power.
