Psalms 121

1 A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. From where will my help come?

A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?

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

My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to slip; he who protects you will not slumber.

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.

Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Yahweh is your guardian; Yahweh is the shade at your right hand.

The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

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

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7 Yahweh will protect you from all harm, and he will protect your life.

The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.

8 Yahweh will protect you in all you do now and forevermore.

The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever.
