Mum's favourite Psalm -Psalm 91

Created by Santosh 4 years ago

We read this together in the last days. She read it in Punjabi and I read it in English. It talks about the safety found in God even when there is trouble all around. She never failed to put her trust in God. 

1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;My God, in Him I will trust.”
3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.

4 He shall cover you with His feathers,And under His wings you shall take refuge;His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

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

6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,And ten thousand at your right hand;But it shall not come near you.

8 Only with your eyes shall you look,And see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,Even the Most High, your dwelling place,

10 No evil shall befall you,Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,To keep you in all your ways.

12 In their hands they shall bear you up,Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
14 “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;I will set him on high, because he has known My name.

15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;I will be with him in trouble;I will deliver him and honour him.

16 With long life I will satisfy him,And show him My salvation.”
