< Psalms 121 >

1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?
A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. O whence shall help for me come?
2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
From the Lord comes help to me the creator of heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
Your foot he will not let totter: he who guards you will not sleep.
4 Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
The guardian of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.
The Lord is he who guards you your shelter upon your right hand.
6 The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
The sun by day shall not strike you, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.
From all evil the Lord will guard you, he will guard your life.
8 The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.
