Read the chapter

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. ✦ 2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. ✦ 3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. ✦ 4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. ✦ 5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; ✦ 6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. ✦ 7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. ✦ 8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. ✦ 9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; ✦ 10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. ✦ 11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. ✦ 12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. ✦ 13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. ✦ 14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. ✦ 15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. ✦ 16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 91 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
