< Psalms 121 >
1 “A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” I lift up mine eyes to the hills: Whence cometh my help?
Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit caelum et terram.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to stumble; Thy guardian doth not slumber.
Non det in commotionem pedem tuum: neque dormitet qui custodit te.
4 Behold, the guardian of Israel Doth neither slumber nor sleep.
Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.
5 The LORD is thy guardian; The LORD is thy shade at thy right hand.
Dominus custodit te, Dominus protectio tua, super manum dexteram tuam.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, Nor the moon by night.
Per diem sol non uret te: neque luna per noctem.
7 The LORD will preserve thee from all evil; He will preserve thy life.
Dominus custodit te ab omni malo: custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
8 The LORD will preserve thee, when thou goest out and when thou comest in, From this time forth for ever.
Dominus custodiat introitum tuum, et exitum tuum: ex hoc nunc, et usque in saeculum.
