There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.
For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the deadly pestilence.He will cover thee with his pinions, And under his wings shalt thou take refuge: His truth is a shield and a buckler.Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, Nor for the arrow that flieth by day;For the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.A thousand shall fall at thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; But it shall not come nigh thee.Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, And see the reward of the wicked.For thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge! Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation;There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
