Psalms 121

1 A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.

A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

2 My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

3 Let not thy foot be moved; and let not thy keeper slumber.

He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.

Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord shall keep thee: the Lord is thy shelter upon thy right hand.

The LORD is your keeper. The LORD is your shade on your right hand.

6 The sun shall not burn thee by day, neither the moon by night.

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

7 May the Lord preserve thee from all evil: the Lord shall keep thy soul.

The LORD will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

8 The Lord shall keep thy coming in, and thy going out, from henceforth and even for ever.

The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.
