⁶ nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
    nor the plague that destroys at midday.
⁷ A thousand may fall at your side,
    ten thousand at your right hand,
    but it will not come near you.
⁸ You will only observe with your eyes
    and see the punishment of the wicked.

⁹ If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
    and you make the Most High your dwelling,
¹⁰ no harm will overtake you,
    no disaster will come near your tent.
¹¹ For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways;

Dear Father, There are always terrible things happening in the world because of sin. You are my refuge, Lord. I will trust you and follow you. You help me through tough times. You protect me. You guard my ways. May your favor rest on me for my life. I belong to you, Lord. Thank you. In Jesus’ Name I Pray, Amen.
