[1] O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and abidest in the shadow of the Almighty;
[2] I will say of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust,
[3] That He will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
[4] He will cover thee with His pinions, and under His wings shalt thou take refuge; His truth is a shield and a buckler.
[5] Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
[6] Of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
[7] A thousand may fall at Thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand; it shall not come nigh thee.
[8] Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the recompense of the wicked.
[9] For thou hast made 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 who is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation.
[10] There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
[11] For He will give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
[12] They shall bear thee upon their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
[13] Thou shalt tread upon the lion and asp; the young lion and the serpent 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 rescue him, and bring him to honour.
[16] With long life will I satisfy him, and make Him to behold My salvation.'
