Psalms 121

1 A Song of degrees. I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall 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 [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.

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

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

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

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.

5 Jehovah is thy keeper, Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand;

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

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

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

7 Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; he will keep thy soul.

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

8 Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth and for evermore.

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