< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.
A Song of degrees. I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?
2 My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.
My help [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
3 Let not thy foot be moved; and let not thy keeper slumber.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord shall keep thee: the Lord is thy shelter upon thy right hand.
Jehovah is thy keeper, Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand;
6 The sun shall not burn thee by day, neither the moon by night.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 May the Lord preserve thee from all evil: the Lord shall keep thy soul.
Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; he will keep thy soul.
8 The Lord shall keep thy coming in, and thy going out, from henceforth and even for ever.
Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth and for evermore.
