Psalms 91:10
8 You will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling— my refuge, the Most High—
no evil will befall you, no plague will approach your tent.
11 For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.
12 They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
