Psalm 91-93

21st Century King James Version

91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

² I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in Him will I trust.”

³ Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence.

⁴ He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust; His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

⁵ Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day,

⁶ nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that layeth waste at noonday.

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

⁸ Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

⁹ Because thou hast made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation,

¹⁰ there shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

¹¹ For He shall give His angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways.

¹² They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹³ Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample underfoot.

¹⁴ “Because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known My name.

¹⁵ He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

¹⁶ With long life will I satisfy him, and show him My salvation.”

92 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto Thy name, O Most High,

² to show forth Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness every night,

³ upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the psaltery, upon the harp with a solemn sound.

⁴ For Thou, Lord, hast made me glad through Thy work; I will triumph in the works of Thy hands.

⁵ O Lord, how great are Thy works! And Thy thoughts are very deep.

⁶ A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand this:

⁷ when the wicked spring up as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed for ever;

⁸ but Thou, Lord, art Most High for evermore.

⁹ For lo, Thine enemies, O Lord, for lo, Thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

¹⁰ But my horn shalt Thou exalt like the horn of a unicorn; I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

¹¹ Mine eye also shall see what I desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear what I desire upon the wicked that rise up against me.

¹² The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

¹³ Those that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

¹⁴ They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing to show

¹⁵ that the Lord is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

93 The Lord reigneth; He is clothed with majesty. The Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith He hath girded Himself. The world also is established, that it cannot be moved.

² Thy throne is established of old; Thou art from everlasting.

³ The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

⁴ The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

⁵ Thy testimonies are very sure; holiness becometh Thine house, O Lord, for ever.
