Psalms

1và núp bóng Đấng quyền năng tuyệt đối,

2là đồn luỹ chở che, con tin tưởng vào Ngài.”

3khỏi lưới kẻ thù giăng, khỏi tai ương tàn khốc.

4lòng Chúa tín trung là khiên che thuẫn đỡ.

5hay mũi tên bay giữa ban ngày,

6cả ôn thần sát hại lúc ban trưa.

7riêng phần bạn, tuyệt nhiên không hề hấn.

8thế nào là số phận bọn ác nhân.

9có Đấng Tối Cao làm chỗ nương thân.

10và tai ương không bén mảng tới nhà,

11giữ gìn bạn trên khắp nẻo đường,

12cho bạn khỏi vấp chân vào đá.

13đạp nát đầu sư tử khủng long.

14người nhận biết danh Ta sẽ được sức phù trì.

15Ta giải cứu và ban nhiều vinh dự,

16và hưởng ơn cứu độ Ta ban.”

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

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

16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
