¹The one who lives under the protection of the Most High dwells in the shadow of the Almighty.

²I will say concerning the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust:

³He himself will rescue you from the bird trap, from the destructive plague.

⁴He will cover you with his feathers; you will take refuge under his wings. His faithfulness will be a protective shield.

⁵You will not fear the terror of the night, the arrow that flies by day,

⁶the plague that stalks in darkness, or the pestilence that ravages at noon.

⁷Though a thousand fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, the pestilence will not reach you.

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

⁹Because you have made the LORD  — my refuge, the Most High — your dwelling place,

¹⁰no harm will come to you; no plague will come near your tent.

¹¹For he will give his angels orders concerning you, to protect you in all your ways.

¹²They will support you with 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 young lion and the serpent.

¹⁴Because he has his heart set on me, I will deliver him; I will protect him because he knows my name.

¹⁵When he calls out to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and give him honor.

¹⁶I will satisfy him with a long life and show him my salvation.

¹A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. [1] It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praise to your name, Most High,

²to declare your faithful love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

³with a ten-stringed harp and the music of a lyre.

⁴For you have made me rejoice, LORD, by what you have done; I will shout for joy because of the works of your hands.

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

⁶A stupid person does not know, a fool does not understand this:

⁷though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be eternally destroyed.

⁸But you, LORD, are exalted forever.

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

¹⁰You have lifted up my horn like that of a wild ox; I have been anointed with the finest oil.

¹¹My eyes look at my enemies; when evildoers rise against me, my ears hear them.

¹²The righteous thrive like a palm tree and grow like a cedar tree in Lebanon.

¹³Planted in the house of the LORD, they thrive in the courts of our God.

¹⁴They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and green,

¹⁵to declare: “The LORD is just; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.”

¹The LORD reigns! He is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed, enveloped in strength. The world is firmly established; it cannot be shaken.

²Your throne has been established from the beginning; you are from eternity.

³The floods have lifted up, LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their pounding waves.

⁴Greater than the roar of a huge torrent — the mighty breakers of the sea — the LORD on high is majestic.
