Psalms 91 Scripture Declarations

PSALMS 91 - Various Versions

Because I dwell in the shelter of God Most-High, I abide under the protection of the Almighty. I say, “He is my refuge, my fortress, my God.” I trust Him. He saves me, He covers me, and under His wings I find refuge. He saves me from hidden dangers and from deadly diseases.

I can go to him for protection. He will cover me like a bird spreading its wings over its babies. I can trust Him to surround and protect me like a shield. I have nothing to fear at night and no need to be afraid of enemy arrows during the day. 

A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me. I’ve made the Lord Who is my refuge, the Most High, my dwelling place; therefore, evil, plague, viruses, sickness, disease, disaster, and violence cannot come near me or my home.

God has given His angels charge over me to accompany, defend, and protect me. I love the Lord. I know, understand, and trust His name. I call out to Him and He answers me. He is with me in trouble to save me. He delivers and honors me. With long life He satisfies me and shows me His salvation.


PSALMS 91 - NLT Version

Because I live in the shelter of the Most High, I find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare of You Lord, “You alone are my refuge, my place of safety. You are my God, and I trust You.” 

You rescue me from every trap and protect me from the fatal plague. You shield me with Your wings. You shelter me with Your feathers. Your faithful promises are my armor and protection. I am not afraid of the terrors of the night; I do not fear the dangers of the day. 

Though a thousand fall at my side, though ten thousand are dying around me, these evils will not touch me.  But I will see it with my eyes; I will see how the wicked are punished. Because I have made You Lord my refuge, and the Most High my shelter, no evil will conquer me. No plague will come near my dwelling. 

For God, You order Your angels to protect me wherever I go. They will hold me with their hands to keep me from striking my foot on a stone. I trample down lions and poisonous snakes. I crush fierce lions and serpents under my feet!

Lord, You rescue me because I love You. You protect me because I trust in Your name. When I call on You, You answer.  You are with me in trouble. You rescue me and honor me. You satisfy me with a long life, and You give me Your salvation (deliverance, healing, health, wholeness, help, prosperity, victory, preservation, safety, rescue from danger).


PSALMS 91 - AMP Version

Father, I praise You and thank You that because I dwell in the secret place of the Most High, I will remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty (Whose power no foe can withstand). I say of You, Lord, “You are my refuge and fortress, my God. On You God, I lean and rely, and in You I confidently trust!”

For then You deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. You cover me with Your pinions, and under Your wings I trust and find refuge. Your truth and Your faithfulness are a shield and a buckler. I am not afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay waste at noonday. 

A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me. Only a spectator will I be (myself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High) as I witness the reward of the wicked. Because I have made You Lord, my refuge, and the Most High my dwelling place, no evil will befall me, nor will any plague or calamity come near my tent. 

For God, You give Your angels (especial) charge over me, to accompany and defend and preserve me in all my ways (of obedience and service). Your angels bear me up on their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone. I will tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent I will trample underfoot. 

Because I have set my love upon You God, You deliver me. You set me on high, because I know and understand Your name (I have a personal knowledge of Your mercy, love, and kindness). I trust and rely on You God, knowing You will never forsake me, no, never. 

I call upon You, and You answer me. You are with me in trouble. You deliver me and honor me. With long life, You satisfy me and show me Your salvation (deliverance, healing, health, wholeness, help, prosperity, victory, preservation, safety, rescue from danger).


PSALMS 91 - NKJ Version

Because I dwell in the secret place of the Most High, I shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I say of You Lord, "You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in Whom I trust." 

Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence. You cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I take refuge. Your truth is a shield and buckler. I am not afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me. Only with my eyes will I look, and see the reward of the wicked. Because I have made You LORD, my refuge, the Most High, my dwelling place, no evil will befall me, nor will any plague come near my dwelling.

For God, You give Your angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways. In their hands they will bear me up, lest I dash my foot against a stone. I tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent I trample underfoot.

Because I have set my love upon You Lord, You deliver me. You set me on high, because I know Your Name.  I call upon You, and You answer me. You are with me in trouble. You deliver me and honor me. With long life, You satisfy me, and show me Your salvation (deliverance, healing, health, wholeness, help, prosperity, victory, preservation, safety, rescue from danger).


PSALMS 91 - NIV Version

Because I dwell in the shelter of the Most High, I rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I say of You Lord, "You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust." 

Surely You God, save me from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. You cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I find refuge.  Your faithfulness is my shield and rampart.  I do not fear 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.

A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me. I only observe with my eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. Because I make You Most High my dwelling, and the Lord, my refuge - then no harm will befall me, no disaster will come near my tent.

For God You command Your angels concerning me, to guard me in all my ways. They will lift me up in their hands, so that I will not strike my foot against a stone. I tread upon the lion and the cobra; I trample the great lion and the serpent.

Because I love You Lord, You rescue me; You protect me, for I acknowledge Your name. I call upon You, and You answer me; You are with me in trouble, You deliver me and honor me. With long life, You will satisfy me and show me Your salvation (deliverance, healing, health, wholeness, help, prosperity, victory, preservation, safety, rescue from danger).
