< Psalms 121 >
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from where comes my help.
“A song for the degrees.” I lift up my eyes unto the mountains: whence shall come my help?
2 My help comes from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
My help is from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer your foot to be moved: he that keeps you will not slumber.
He will not suffer thy foot to slip: thy keeper doth not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Behold, he slumbereth not, and he sleepeth not—the keeper of Israel.
5 The LORD is your keeper: the LORD is your shade on your right hand.
The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade, he is on thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite you by day, nor the moon by night.
By day the sun shall not strike thee, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve you from all evil: he shall preserve your soul.
The Lord will guard thee against all evil: he will guard thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even for ever more.
The Lord will guard thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth and for evermore.
