8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made
in the earth.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the
bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the
fire.
10 Be still, and know that I _am_ God: I will be exalted among the
heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The Lord of hosts _is_ with us; the God of Jacob _is_ our refuge.
Selah.
Psalm 91
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide
under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, _He is_ my refuge and my fortress: my God;
in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, _and_
from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt
thou trust: his truth _shall be thy_ shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; _nor_ for the
arrow _that_ flieth by day;
6 _Nor_ for the pestilence _that_ walketh in darkness; _nor_ for the
destruction _that_ wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right
hand; _but_ it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the
wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, _which is_ my refuge, _even_ the
most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come
nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in
all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in _their_ hands, lest thou dash thy foot
against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the
dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver
him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I _will be_ with
him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
Psalm 95
1 O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to
the rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a
joyful noise unto him with psalms.
3 For the Lord _is_ a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand _are_ the deep places of the earth: the strength of
the hills _is_ his also.
5 The sea _is_ his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry
_land_.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord
our maker.
7 For he _is_ our God; and we _are_ the people of his pasture, and
the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, _and_ as _in_ the
day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
