He will spread his wings
over you
    and keep you secure.
His faithfulness is like
    a shield or a city wall.[a]

You won't need to worry
about dangers at night
    or arrows during the day.
And you won't fear diseases
that strike in the dark
    or sudden disaster at noon.

  1. 91.4 city wall: One possible meaning for a difficult Hebrew word; it may possibly mean some kind of shield or weapon.

He will cover you with his feathers,
    and under his wings you will find refuge;(A)
    his faithfulness will be your shield(B) and rampart.
You will not fear(C) the terror of night,
    nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
    nor the plague that destroys at midday.
