Psalms 121
1 [When we travel toward Jerusalem], I look up toward the hills [and I ask myself], “Who will help me?”
Canción de las gradas. Alzaré mis ojos a los montes, de donde vendrá mi socorro.
2 [And my answer is] that Yahweh is the one who helps me; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.
Mi socorro viene de parte del SEÑOR, que hizo los cielos y la tierra.
3 He will not allow us to fall/stumble; God, who protects us, will not fall asleep.
No dará tu pie al resbaladero; ni se dormirá el que te guarda.
4 The one who protects us Israeli people never gets sleepy, nor does he sleep [LIT].
He aquí, no se adormecerá ni dormirá el que guarda a Israel.
5 Yahweh watches over us; he is like the shade [MET] [that protects us from the sun].
El SEÑOR será tu guardador; el SEÑOR será tu sombra a tu mano derecha.
6 [He will not allow] the sun to harm us during the day, and [he will not allow] the moon to harm us during the night.
El sol no te fatigará de día, ni la luna de noche.
7 Yahweh will protect us from being harmed in any manner; he will keep us safe.
El SEÑOR te guardará de todo mal; el guardará tu alma.
8 He will protect us from the time that we leave [our houses in the morning] until we return [in the evening]; he will protect us now, and he will protect us forever.
El SEÑOR guardará tu salida y tu entrada, desde ahora y para siempre.
