Psalm 91:9-16
Contemporary English Version

9 The Lord Most High
    is your fortress.
Run to him for safety,
10 and no terrible disasters
    will strike you
    or your home.

11 (A) God will command his angels
to protect you
    wherever you go.
12 (B) They will carry you
    in their arms,
and you won't hurt your feet
    on the stones.
13 (C) You will overpower
the strongest lions
    and the most deadly snakes.

14 The Lord says, “If you love me
    and truly know who I am,
I will rescue you
    and keep you safe.
15 When you are in trouble,
    call out to me.
I will answer and be there
    to protect and honor you.
16 You will live a long life
    and see my saving power.”

Psalm 91:9-16
New International Version

9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
    and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm(A) will overtake you,
    no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels(B) concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways;(C)
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.(D)
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
    you will trample the great lion and the serpent.(E)

14 “Because he[a] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
    I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
    I will be with him in trouble,
    I will deliver him and honor him.(F)
16 With long life(G) I will satisfy him
    and show him my salvation.(H)”
