... in the shelter of the Most High

"Those who live in the shelter of the Most High

will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

This I declare about the LORD:

He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;

he is my God, and I trust him.

For he will reduce you from every trap

and protect you from deadly disease.

He will cover you with his feathers.

He will shelter you his wings. 

His faithful promises are your armor and protection. 

Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,

nor the arrow that flies in the day.

Do not dread the disease that stalks in the darkness, 

nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

Though a thousand fall at your side.

Though ten thousand are dying around you.

those evils will not touch you.

Just open you eyes,

and see how the wicked are punished.

If you make the LORD your refuge,

if you make the Most High your shelter,

no evil will conquer you;

no plague will come near your home;

For he will order his angels

to protect you whenever you go. 

They will hold you up with their hands

so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone.

You will trample upon lines and cobras;

you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

The LORD says, 'I will rescue those who love me. 

I will protect those who love me. 

I will protect those who trust in my name. 

When they call on me, I will answer; 

I will be with them in trouble.

I will rescue and honor them.

I will reward them with a long life

and give them my salvation." 

Psalm 91 : 1 -16 ( New Living Translation)
