You will not fear the terror of the night, the arrow that flies by day,the plague that stalks in darkness, or the pestilence that ravages at noon.Though a thousand fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, the pestilence will not reach you.You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.Because you have made the LORD— my refuge, the Most High— your dwelling place,no harm will come to you; no plague will come near your tent.
