Psalm 91

1  Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High ♦︎
   and abides under the shadow of the Almighty,
2  Shall say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my stronghold, ♦︎
   my God, in whom I put my trust.’
3  For he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler ♦︎
   and from the deadly pestilence.
4  He shall cover you with his wings
      and you shall be safe under his feathers; ♦︎
   his faithfulness shall be your shield and buckler.
5  You shall not be afraid of any terror by night, ♦︎
   nor of the arrow that flies by day;
6  Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, ♦︎
   nor of the sickness that destroys at noonday.
7  Though a thousand fall at your side
      and ten thousand at your right hand, ♦︎
   yet it shall not come near you.
8  Your eyes have only to behold ♦︎
   to see the reward of the wicked.
9  Because you have made the Lord your refuge ♦︎
   and the Most High your stronghold,
10  There shall no evil happen to you, ♦︎
   neither shall any plague come near your tent.
11  For he shall give his angels charge over you, ♦︎
   to keep you in all your ways.
12  They shall bear you in their hands, ♦︎
   lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13  You shall tread upon the lion and adder; ♦︎
   the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
14  Because they have set their love upon me,
      therefore will I deliver them; ♦︎
   I will lift them up, because they know my name.
15  They will call upon me and I will answer them; ♦︎
   I am with them in trouble,
      I will deliver them and bring them to honour.
16  With long life will I satisfy them ♦︎
   and show them my salvation.

Psalm 92

1  It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord ♦︎
   and to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
2  To tell of your love early in the morning ♦︎
   and of your faithfulness in the night-time,
3  Upon the ten-stringed instrument, upon the harp, ♦︎
   and to the melody of the lyre.
4  For you, Lord, have made me glad by your acts, ♦︎
   and I sing aloud at the works of your hands.
5  O Lord, how glorious are your works! ♦︎
   Your thoughts are very deep.
6  The senseless do not know, ♦︎
   nor do fools understand,
7  That though the wicked sprout like grass ♦︎
   and all the workers of iniquity flourish,
8  It is only to be destroyed for ever; ♦︎
   but you, O Lord, shall be exalted for evermore.
9  For lo, your enemies, O Lord,
      lo, your enemies shall perish, ♦︎
   and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10  But my horn you have exalted
      like the horns of wild oxen; ♦︎
   I am anointed with fresh oil.
11  My eyes will look down on my foes; ♦︎
   my ears shall hear the ruin of the evildoers
      who rise up against me.
12  The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, ♦︎
   and shall spread abroad like a cedar of Lebanon.
13  Such as are planted in the house of the Lord ♦︎
   shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14  They shall still bear fruit in old age; ♦︎
   they shall be vigorous and in full leaf;
15  That they may show that the Lord is true; ♦︎
   he is my rock,
      and there is no unrighteousness in him.
