[ Read](/kjv/psalms/91)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/91)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/91) Audio

 1 He that dwelleth 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 will I trust.

 3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, *and* from the noisome pestilence.

 4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth *shall be thy* shield and buckler.

 5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; *nor* for the arrow *that* flieth by day;

 6 *Nor* for the pestilence *that* walketh in darkness; *nor* for the destruction *that* wasteth at noonday.

 7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; *but* it shall not come nigh thee.

 8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

 9 Because thou hast made the LORD, *which is* my refuge, *even* the most High, thy habitation;

 10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

 11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

 12 They shall bear thee up in *their* hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

 13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.*

 14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath 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 will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.*

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 91:0](/kjv/psalms/91/0). 

*The state of the godly: their safety: their habitation: their servants: their friend; with the effects of them all.* 

THIS psalm has no title, and therefore is likely to be by the same author with the foregoing; but this is still more probable from the subject of it: for as the 90th psalm appears calculated for the use of those who were to die in the wilderness, so the present seems evidently designed for those who were to survive this threatened devastation, and whom therefore he arms against the fear of death, by a religious trust in God; with the promise of a miraculous protection to such as trusted in him. Both psalms seem to have been composed soon after the irrevocable decree was passed, [Numbers 14:0](/kjv/numbers/14/0) which condemned one part of them, all who were *numbered from twenty years old and upwards,*to a lingering death in the wilderness, and their little ones to a forty years wandering for their father's sins; but with a gracious promise, however, that they should at length obtain an entrance into the land of Canaan. Both sorts, therefore, stood in need of support and consolation, though of a different kind; and we find it given them in these two psalms. The younger sort are thus instructed and encouraged: *He that dwelleth,*&c. [Psalms 91:1-4](/kjv/psalms/91/1-4). Peters.
