2. I say to the Lord, “You are my place of safety, my fortress. My God, I trust in you.”
3. God will save you from hidden dangers and from deadly diseases.
4. You can go to him for protection. He will cover you like a bird spreading its wings over its babies. You can trust him to surround and protect you like a shield.
5. You will have nothing to fear at night and no need to be afraid of enemy arrows during the day.
6. You will have no fear of diseases that come in the dark or terrible suffering that comes at noon.
7. A thousand people may fall dead at your side or ten thousand right beside you, but nothing bad will happen to you!
