2 Say to the Lord, “My refuge and fortress,my God in whom I trust.”
3 He will rescue you from the fowler’s snare,from the destroying plague,
4 He will shelter you with his pinions,and under his wings you may take refuge;his faithfulness is a protecting shield.
5 You shall not fear the terror of the nightnor the arrow that flies by day,
6 Nor the pestilence that roams in darkness,nor the plague that ravages at noon.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side,ten thousand at your right hand,near you it shall not come.
8 You need simply watch;the punishment of the wicked you will see.
