Psalm 90:5–16

⁵His truth shall compass thee with a shield: thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night.

⁶Of the arrow that flieth in the day, of the business that walketh about in the dark: of invasion, or of the noonday devil.

⁷A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: but it shall not come nigh thee.

⁸But thou shalt consider with thy eyes: and shalt see the reward of the wicked.

⁹Because thou, O Lord, art my hope: thou hast made the most High thy refuge.

¹⁰There shall no evil come to thee: nor shall the scourge come near thy dwelling.

¹¹For he hath given his angels charge over thee; to keep thee in all thy ways.

¹²In their hands they shall bear thee up: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹³Thou shalt walk upon the asp and the basilisk: and thou shalt trample under foot the lion and the dragon.

¹⁴Because he hoped in me I will deliver him: I will protect him because he hath known my name.

¹⁵He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: I am with him in tribulation, I will deliver him, and I will glorify him.

¹⁶I will fill him with length of days; and I will shew him my salvation.
