6 Though Plagues and many sudden harms [Do oft] surprise men in the night, Trust God, and fear them not; Nor those Which do destroy in [Noon-day] light.
6 Though Plagues and many sudden harms [Do oft] surprize men in the night, Trust God, and fear them not; Nor those Which do destroy in [Noon-day] light.
7 A thousand at thy side shall fall, [And ten] thousands at thy right hand, When nigh thee there it shall not come, But God shall [safely] thee defend.
8 Only this dreadful spectacle, [When] that day [comes] thine eyes shall see How those who now live wickedly, Shall then [by God] rewarded be.
9 Because the blessed God most high, [Who is] my refuge, thou hast made The dwelling where thy faithful soul Its [daily] conversation had.
