1El que habita al abrigo del Altísimo Morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.
2Diré yo a Jehová: Esperanza mía, y castillo mío; Mi Dios, en quien confiaré.
3Él te librará del lazo del cazador, De la peste destructora.
4Con sus plumas te cubrirá, Y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro; Escudo y adarga es su verdad.
5No temerás el terror nocturno, Ni saeta que vuele de día,
6Ni pestilencia que ande en oscuridad, Ni mortandad que en medio del día destruya.
7Caerán a tu lado mil, Y diez mil a tu diestra; Mas a ti no llegará.
8Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás Y verás la recompensa de los impíos.
9Porque has puesto a Jehová, que es mi esperanza, Al Altísimo por tu habitación,
10No te sobrevendrá mal, Ni plaga tocará tu morada.
11Pues a sus ángeles mandará acerca de ti, Que te guarden en todos tus caminos.
12En las manos te llevarán, Para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra.
13Sobre el león y el áspid pisarás; Hollarás al cachorro del león y al dragón.
14Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su amor, yo también lo libraré; Le pondré en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi nombre.
15Me invocará, y yo le responderé; Con él estaré yo en la angustia; Lo libraré y le glorificaré.
16Lo saciaré de larga vida, Y le mostraré mi salvación.
