Psalms 121

1 [A Song of Ascents.] I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. O whence shall help for me come?

2 My help comes from YHWH, who made heaven and earth.

From the Lord comes help to me the creator of heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

Your foot he will not let totter: he who guards you will not sleep.

4 Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

The guardian of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 YHWH is your keeper. YHWH is your shade on your right hand.

The Lord is he who guards you your shelter upon your right hand.

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

The sun by day shall not strike you, nor the moon by night.

7 YHWH will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

From all evil the Lord will guard you, he will guard your life.

8 YHWH will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.

The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.
