< Psalms 121 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
2 My help comes from YHWH, who made heaven and earth.
Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.
3 He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.
Non det in commotionem pedem tuum, neque dormitet qui custodit te.
4 Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israël.
5 YHWH is your keeper. YHWH is your shade on your right hand.
Dominus custodit te; Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam.
6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
Per diem sol non uret te, neque luna per noctem.
7 YHWH will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.
Dominus custodit te ab omni malo; custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
8 YHWH will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.
Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
