Image is to set the theme, not to be accurate.

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 for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

⁶ Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth 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 , which 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 under feet.

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 honour him.

¹⁶ With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

91 You can go to God Most High to hide.
You can go to God All-Powerful for protection.
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!
⁸ All you will have to do is watch,
and you will see that the wicked are punished.
⁹ You trust in the Lord for protection.
You have made God Most High your place of safety.
¹⁰ So nothing bad will happen to you.
No diseases will come near your home.
¹¹ He will command his angels to protect you wherever you go.
¹² Their hands will catch you
so that you will not hit your foot on a rock.
¹³ You will have power to trample on lions
and poisonous snakes.
¹⁴ The Lord says, “If someone trusts me, I will save them.
I will protect my followers who call to me for help.
¹⁵ When my followers call to me, I will answer them.
I will be with them when they are in trouble.
I will rescue them and honor them.
¹⁶ I will give my followers a long life
and show them my power to save.”

91 He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,

² He is saying of Jehovah, `My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,'

³ For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.

⁴ With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.

⁵ Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,

⁶ Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,

⁷ There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.

⁸ But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,

⁹ (For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge,) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.

¹⁰ Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,

91 A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day.

² It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.

³ To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:

⁴ Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.

⁵ For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.

⁶ O Lord, how great are thy works! thy thoughts are exceeding deep.

⁷ The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.

⁸ When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever:

⁹ But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.

¹⁰ For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

¹¹ But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy.

¹² My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.

¹³ The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.

¹⁴ They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.

¹⁵ They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated,

¹⁶ That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
