CHAP. XCI.
1 The state of the godly. 3 Their safety. 9 Their habitation. 11 Their seruants. 14 Their friend, with the effects of them all.
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high: shall abide vnder the shadow of the Almightie.1
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge, and my fortresse: my God, in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliuer thee from the snare of the fouler: and from the noisome pestilence.
5 Thou shalt not bee afraid for the terrour by night: nor for the arrow that flieth by day:
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darknes: nor for the destruction, that wasteth at noone-day.
8 Onely with thine eyes shalt thou behold: & see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, euen the most High, thy habitation:
10 There shall no euill befall thee: neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For hee shall giue his Angels charge ouer thee: to keepe thee in all thy wayes.11
12 They shall beare thee vp in their hands: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread vpon the Lion, and adder: the yong Lion and the dragon shalt thou trample vnder feete.13
16 With long life wil I satisfie him: and shew him my saluation.16
