Psalm 90 📜 📕 ↷

1 PRAISE of a Canticle to David. He that dwelleth in the help of the Highest, shall abide in the protection of the God of heaven.📜💬📚

2 He shall say to our Lord: Thou art my protector, and my refuge: my God I will hope in him.📜💬📚

3 Because he hath delivered me from the snare of the hunters, and from the sharp word.📜💬📚

4 With his shoulders shall he overshadow thee: and under his wings thou shalt hope.📜💬📚

5 With shield shall his truth compass thee: thou shalt not be afraid of the fear in the night.📜💬📚

6 Of the arrow flying in the day, of business walking in darkness: of invasion, and the midday devil.📜💬📚

7 A thousand shall fall on thy side, & ten thousand on thy right hand: but to thee it shall not approach.📜💬📚

8 But thou shalt consider with thine eyes: and shalt see the retribution of sinners.📜💬📚

9 Because thou o Lord art my hope: thou hast made the Highest thy refuge.📜💬📚

10 There shall no evil come to thee: and scourge shall not approach to thy tabernacle.📜💬📚

11 Because he hath given his Angels charge of thee: that they keep thee in all thy ways.📜💬📚

12 In their hands they shall bear thee: lest perhaps thou knock thy foot against a stone.📜💬📚

13 Upon the asp and the basiliscus thou shall walk: & thou shalt tread upon the lion, and the dragon.📜💬📚

14 Because he hath hoped in me, I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he hath known my name.📜💬📚

15 He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: with him I am in tribulation: I will deliver him, and will glorify him.📜💬📚

16 With length of days I will replenish him: and I will shew him my salvation.📜💬📚
