Psalm 91

Psalm

Book Four

A prayer by the prophet Moses

Lord, you have been like a home for us

throughout our generations. 2 Before you created the mountains,

before you formed the earth and everything that is in it,

you were eternally God,

and you will be God forever.

3 When people die, you cause their corpses to become soil again;

you change their corpses to become dirt like that from which the first man was created.

4 When you consider time,

a thousand years are as short as one day that passes;

you consider that they are as short as a few hours in the night.

5 You cause people to die suddenly;

they live only a short time as a dream lasts only a short time.

They are like grass in the morning that comes and goes.

6 In the morning the grass sprouts and develops,

then in the evening it dries up and completely withers.

7 Similarly, because of the sins that we commit, you become angry with us;

you terrify us and then you destroy us.

8 It is as though you place our sins in front of you;

spreading out even our secret sins where you can see them.

9 Because you are angry with us, you cause our lives to end;

the years that we live pass as quickly as a sigh passes.

10 People live for only seventy years;

if they are strong, some of them live for eighty years.

But throughout our time we have much pain and troubles;

our lives soon end, and we die.

11 No one has fully experienced the powerful things that you can do to people when you are angry with them,

No, people are not adequately afraid of how you can punish them because you are angry with them.

12 So teach us to realize that we live for only a short time

in order that we may think wisely about how we use our time.

13 Yahweh, how long will you be angry with us?

Pity us who serve you.

14 Each morning, show us that it is enough for us if you love us faithfully as you have promised that you would do.

Show us this so that we may shout joyfully and be happy all during the years that we live.

15 Cause us now to be happy for as many years as you afflicted us and we experienced bad things.

16 Enable us who serve you to see the great things that you do,

and enable our descendants to see your glorious power also.

17 Lord, our God, give us your blessings

and enable us to be successful;

yes, cause us to be successful in everything that we do!

Psalm

91 Those people whom God Most High protects

will be able to rest safely because Shaddai cares for them.

2 I will declare to Yahweh,

“You protect me;

you are like a stronghold in which I am safe.

You are my God, the one in whom I trust.”

3 He will rescue you from all hidden traps

and save you from deadly diseases.

4 He will protect you as a bird does who covers her young under her wings.

You will be safe in his care.

As he faithfully does what he has promised, that is like a shield or strong wall that will protect you.

5 You will not be afraid of things that happen during the night that could terrorize you

or of arrows that your enemies will shoot at you during the day.

6 You will not be afraid of plagues that infect people in the night

or of other evil forces that kill people in the light of day.

7 Even if a thousand people fall dead alongside you,

even if ten thousand people are dying around you,

the deadly thing will not harm you.

8 All you need to do is watch

and you will see that God is punishing evil people!

9 This is because you trust Yahweh, God Most High, who protects me,

to also protect you.

10 Therefore, nothing evil will happen to you;

no plague will affect your family

11 because Yahweh will command his angels

to protect you in whatever you are doing.

12 They will even hold you up with their hands

so that you will not hurt your foot on a big stone.

13 Yahweh will not allow your enemies to harm you;

even if strong lions and poisonous snakes attack you, you will defeat them!

14 Yahweh says, “I will rescue those who love me;

I will protect them because they know me.

15 When they call out to me, I will answer them.

I will help them when they are experiencing trouble;

I will rescue them and honor them.

16 I will reward them by enabling them to live a long time,

and I will save them.”
