መዝሙር 91
የእግዚአብሔር ጥበቃ
1በልዑል መጠጊያ የሚኖር፣
ሁሉን በሚችል አምላክ91፥1 በዕብራይስጥ ሻዳይ ማለት ነው። ጥላ ሥር ያድራል።
2እግዚአብሔርን፣ “መጠጊያዬ፣ ምሽጌ፣
የምታመንብህ አምላኬ” እለዋለሁ።91፥2 አንዳንድ ትርጕሞች ይላል ይላሉ።
3እርሱ ከዐዳኝ ወጥመድ፣
ከአሰቃቂ ቸነፈር ያድንሃልና።
4በላባዎቹ ይጋርድሃል፤
በክንፎቹ ሥር መሸሸጊያ ታገኛለህ፤
ታማኝነቱ ጋሻና መከታ ይሆንሃል።
5የሌሊትን አስደንጋጭነት፣
በቀን የሚወረወረውንም ፍላጻ አትፈራም፤
6በጨለማ የሚያደባ ቸነፈር፣
በቀትር ረፍራፊውም አያሠጋህም።
7በአጠገብህ ሺሕ፣ በቀኝህም ዐሥር ሺሕ ይወድቃል፤
ወደ አንተ ግን አይቀርብም።
8በዐይንህ ብቻ ትመለከታለህ፤
የክፉዎችንም መቀጣት ታያለህ።
9እግዚአብሔርን መሸሸጊያ፣
ልዑልንም መጠጊያህ አድርገኸዋልና።
10ክፉ ነገር አያገኝህም፤
መቅሠፍትም ወደ ድንኳንህ አይገባም፤
11በመንገድህ ሁሉ ይጠብቁህ ዘንድ፣
መላእክቱን ስለ አንተ ያዝዛቸዋልና።
12እግርህ ከድንጋይ ጋር እንዳይጋጭ፣
በእጆቻቸው ወደ ላይ ያነሡሃል።
13በአንበሳና በእፉኝት ላይ ትጫማለህ፤
ደቦሉን አንበሳና ዘንዶውን ትረግጣለህ።
14“ወድዶኛልና እታደገዋለሁ፤
ስሜን ዐውቋልና እከልለዋለሁ።
15ይጠራኛል፤ እመልስለታለሁ፤
በመከራው ጊዜ ከእርሱ ጋር እሆናለሁ፤
አድነዋለሁ፤ አከብረዋለሁ።
16ረዥም ዕድሜን አጠግበዋለሁ፤
ማዳኔንም አሳየዋለሁ።”
1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.91.1 abide: Heb. lodge
2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.91.13 adder: or, asp
14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.91.16 long…: Heb. length of days
