The verses around Psalms 91:4.
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.
5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
Verse explanation
“Shield and buckler” name two types of military protection from that era: the larger shield, which covered the whole body, and the buckler, lighter and round. Combining both with the image of a bird's wings reinforces total protection, on every front.
From the Psalms 91 study in Bible in Stories.
