King James Bible
"They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."
The 'they' refers to angels mentioned in verse 11, depicting divine messengers physically supporting and carrying the faithful through danger. This image of being lifted up suggests God's protective intervention through heavenly agents who actively prevent harm. Even the smallest hazards like stumbling stones are prevented by God's care, emphasizing the thoroughness of divine protection. This verse was notably quoted by Satan during Jesus' temptation, twisting its promise of protection into a test of presumption.
