The verses around Psalms 91:2.
1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Verse explanation
It stacks up three images of protection — refuge, fortress — reinforcing the same idea by accumulation, a device common in Hebrew poetry used to intensify the confidence being expressed rather than add new information.
From the Psalms 91 study in Bible in Stories.
