Psalms 121

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

A Song of degrees. I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from which cometh my help.

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

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

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

He will not allow 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 preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

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

The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
