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. From where will my help come?

2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.

He will not allow your foot to slip; he who protects you will not slumber.

4 Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.

5 The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.

Yahweh is your guardian; Yahweh is the shade at your right hand.

6 The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.

The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.

Yahweh will protect you from all harm, and he will protect your life.

8 The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.

Yahweh will protect you in all you do now and forevermore.
