Psalms 91:1
1As for you, the one who lives ▼▼ Heb “[O] one who lives.”
in the shelter of the sovereign One, ▼▼ Traditionally “the Most High.”
and resides in the protective shadow ▼ of the mighty king ▼
▼ The divine name used here is “Shaddai” (שַׁדַּי, shadday; see also Ps 68:14). Shaddai (or El Shaddai) is the mighty king (sovereign judge) of the world who grants life/blesses and kills/judges. In Genesis he blesses the patriarchs with fertility and promises numerous descendants. Outside Genesis he both blesses/protects and takes away life/happiness.
