1. You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High,who abide in the shade of the Almighty,
2. Say to the Lord, “My refuge and fortress,my God in whom I trust.”
3. He will rescue you from the fowler’s snare,from the destroying plague,
4. He will shelter you with his pinions,and under his wings you may take refuge;his faithfulness is a protecting shield.
5. You shall not fear the terror of the nightnor the arrow that flies by day,
6. Nor the pestilence that roams in darkness,nor the plague that ravages at noon.
7. Though a thousand fall at your side,ten thousand at your right hand,near you it shall not come.
8. You need simply watch;the punishment of the wicked you will see.
