4He will cover you with His feathers;
you will take refuge under His wings. Ps 57:1; 63:7

5You will not fear the terror of the night,
the arrow that flies by day, Ps 58:7; 76:3

or the pestilence that ravages at noon. Jb 5:19-23
7Though a thousand fall at your side
and ten thousand at your right hand,
the pestilence will not reach you. 2Ch 20:9
8You will only see it with your eyes
and witness the punishment of the wicked. Ps 37:34; 58:10

the Most High — your dwelling place, Ps 121:5
10no harm will come to you;
no plague will come near your tent. Pr 12:21
11For He will give His angels orders concerning you,
to protect you in all your ways. Ps 34:7

so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. Mt 4:6; Lk 4:10-11
13You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the young lion and the serpent. Lk 10:19
14Because he is lovingly devoted to Me,
I will deliver him;
I will protect him because he knows My name. Ps 9:10; 37:40; 107:41
15When he calls out to Me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble.
I will rescue him and give him honor. 2Sm 22:20; Ps 18:19; 50:15
