< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes, unto the mountains, From whence cometh my help!
A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.
2 My help, is from Yahweh, who made heavens and earth.
My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.
3 May he not suffer thy foot, to slip, May thy keeper, not slumber!
Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.
4 Lo! neither will slumber nor sleep, The keeper of Israel.
Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.
5 Yahweh, is thy keeper, Yahweh, is thy shade, on thy right hand:
The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.
6 By day, the sun, shall not smite, nor, the moon, by night.
The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.
7 Yahweh, will keep thee from all harm, He will keep thy life.
May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.
8 Yahweh, will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth, even unto times age-abiding.
The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.
