< Psalms 121 >
1 I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.
A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?
2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made 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 be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
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 upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.
The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; he shall keep thy soul.
8 May the Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.
The LORD shall keep thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for evermore.
