⁹Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

¹⁰No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.

¹¹For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.

¹³You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon .

¹³Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

¹⁴For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him , because he has known my name.

¹⁴Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

¹⁵He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.
