Tehillah 91 – תהלה צא – D'var יהוה , The Word of יהוה

¹O you that dwell in the secret place of Elyon, and abide in the shadow of Shadai;

²I will say of יהוה , who is my refuge and my fortress, my Elohim, in whom I trust,

³That He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

⁴He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.

⁵You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day;

⁶Of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.

⁷A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; it shall not come nigh unto you.

⁸Only with your eyes shall you behold, and see the recompense of the wicked.

⁹For you have made יהוה , who is my refuge, even Elyon, your habitation.

¹⁰There shall no evil befall you, neither shall any plague come nigh your tent.

¹¹For He will give His Malakhim charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.

¹²They shall bear you upon their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.

¹³You shall tread upon the lion and asp; the young lion and the serpent shall you trample under feet.

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

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

¹⁶With long life will I satisfy him, and make him to behold My Salvation.”

^איֹשֵׁב בְּסֵתֶר עֶלְיוֹן; בְּצֵל שַׁדַּי יִתְלוֹנָן.

^באֹמַר לַיהוה מַחְסִי וּמְצוּדָתִי; אֱלֹהַי אֶבְטַח בּוֹ.

^גכִּי הוּא יַצִּילְךָ מִפַּח יָקוּשׁ; מִדֶּבֶר הַוּוֹת.

^דבְּאֶבְרָתוֹ יָסֶךְ לָךְ וְתַחַת כְּנָפָיו תֶּחְסֶה; צִנָּה וְסֹחֵרָה אֲמִתּוֹ.

^הלֹא תִירָא מִפַּחַד לָיְלָה; מֵחֵץ יָעוּף יוֹמָם.

^ומִדֶּבֶר בָּאֹפֶל יַהֲלֹךְ; מִקֶּטֶב יָשׁוּד צָהֳרָיִם.

^זיִפֹּל מִצִּדְּךָ אֶלֶף וּרְבָבָה מִימִינֶךָ: אֵלֶיךָ לֹא יִגָּשׁ.

^חרַק בְּעֵינֶיךָ תַבִּיט; וְשִׁלֻּמַת רְשָׁעִים תִּרְאֶה.

^טכִּי אַתָּה יהוה מַחְסִי; עֶלְיוֹן שַׂמְתָּ מְעוֹנֶךָ.

^ילֹא תְאֻנֶּה אֵלֶיךָ רָעָה; וְנֶגַע לֹא יִקְרַב בְּאָהֳלֶךָ.

^יאכִּי מַלְאָכָיו יְצַוֶּה לָּךְ; לִשְׁמָרְךָ בְּכָל דְּרָכֶיךָ.

^יבעַל כַּפַּיִם יִשָּׂאוּנְךָ: פֶּן תִּגֹּף בָּאֶבֶן רַגְלֶךָ.

^יגעַל שַׁחַל וָפֶתֶן תִּדְרֹךְ; תִּרְמֹס כְּפִיר וְתַנִּין.

^ידכִּי בִי חָשַׁק וַאֲפַלְּטֵהוּ; אֲשַׂגְּבֵהוּ כִּי יָדַע שְׁמִי.

^טויִקְרָאֵנִי וְאֶעֱנֵהוּ עִמּוֹ אָנֹכִי בְצָרָה; אֲחַלְּצֵהוּ וַאֲכַבְּדֵהוּ.

^טזאֹרֶךְ יָמִים אַשְׂבִּיעֵהוּ; וְאַרְאֵהוּ בִּישׁוּעָתִי.
