Psalms 121

1 I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.

“A song for the degrees.” I lift up my eyes unto the mountains: whence shall come my help?

2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

My help is from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.

3 May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.

He will not suffer thy foot to slip: thy keeper doth not slumber.

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

Behold, he slumbereth not, and he sleepeth not—the keeper of Israel.

5 The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.

The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade, he is on thy right hand.

6 The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.

By day the sun shall not strike thee, nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.

The Lord will guard thee against all evil: he will guard thy soul.

8 May the Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.

The Lord will guard thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth and for evermore.
