Psalm 91 · Qui habitat — Compline Chant for Night Prayer | Latin (with translation)

🕯️ Qui habitat in adiutorio Altissimi — Psalm 91, the night psalm of Compline: protection under God's wings through the dark hours. "You shall not fear the terror of the night." Pray, rest, and sleep in peace. — LATIN — Qui hábitat in adiutório Altíssimi, in protectióne Dei cæli commorábitur. Dicet Dómino: Suscéptor meus es tu, et refúgium meum; Deus meus, sperábo in eum. Quóniam ipse liberávit me de láqueo venántium. Scápulis suis obumbrábit tibi, et sub pennis eius sperábis. Non timébis a timóre noctúrno, a sagítta volánte in die, a negótio perambulánte in ténebris. Quóniam ángelis suis mandávit de te, ut custódiant te in ómnibus viis tuis. In mánibus portábunt te. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto. Amen. — ENGLISH — He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High shall abide in the shadow of the God of heaven. He shall say to the Lord: "You are my protector and my refuge; my God, in you I trust." For he has freed me from the snare of the hunters. He will overshadow you with his wings, and under his feathers you shall hope. You shall not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the plague that walks in the darkness. For he has given his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Amen.
