Psalm 91
1Whoever rests in the shadow of the Most High God
will be kept safe by the Mighty One.
2I will say about the Lord,
“He is my place of safety.
He is like a fort to me.
He is my God. I trust in him.”
3He will certainly save you from hidden traps
and from deadly sickness.
4He will cover you with his wings.
Under the feathers of his wings you will find safety.
He is faithful. He will keep you safe like a shield or a tower.
5You won’t have to be afraid of the terrors that come during the night.
You won’t have to fear the arrows that come at you during the day.
6You won’t have to be afraid of the sickness that attacks in the darkness.
You won’t have to fear the plague that destroys at noon.
7A thousand may fall dead at your side.
Ten thousand may fall near your right hand.
But no harm will come to you.
8You will see with your own eyes
how God punishes sinful people.
9Suppose you say, “The Lord is the one who keeps me safe.”
Suppose you let the Most High God be like a home to you.
10Then no harm will come to you.
No terrible plague will come near your tent.
11The Lord will command his angels
to take good care of you.
12They will lift you up in their hands.
Then you won’t trip over a stone.
13You will walk on lions and cobras.
You will crush mighty lions and poisonous snakes.
14The Lord says, “I will save the one who loves me.
I will keep him safe, because he trusts in me.
15He will call out to me, and I will answer him.
I will be with him in times of trouble.
I will save him and honor him.
16I will give him a long and full life.
I will save him.”
第 91 篇
上帝是我们的保护者
1安居在至高者隐秘处的人，
必蒙全能者的荫庇。
2我要对耶和华说：
“你是我的避难所，我的堡垒，是我所信靠的上帝。”
3祂必救你脱离猎人的网罗和致命的瘟疫。
4祂必用祂的羽毛遮盖你，
用祂的双翼保护你，
祂的信实是你的盾牌和壁垒。
5你必不惧怕黑夜的恐怖，
或白日的飞箭，
6或黑暗中横行的瘟疫，
或正午肆虐的灾难。
7尽管千人扑倒在你左边，
万人扑倒在你右边，
你必安然无恙。
8你必亲眼目睹恶人受惩罚。
9因为你以至高者耶和华——我的避难所作你的居所，
10祸患不会临到你身上，
灾难不会靠近你的住处。
11因为祂必命令祂的天使随时随地保护你。
12天使会用手托住你，
不让你的脚碰在石头上。
13你必将狮子和毒蛇踩在脚下，
你必践踏猛狮和巨蛇。
14耶和华说：“因为他爱我，我必拯救他；
因为他信靠我的名，
我必保护他。
15他求告我，我就答应他；
他遭遇患难，我必与他同在。
我必拯救他，赐他尊贵的地位。
16我必赐他长寿，
并让他看见我的拯救之恩。”
