< Psalms 121 >
1 A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. From where will my help come?
Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
2 My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit caelum et terram.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; he who protects you will not slumber.
Non det in commotionem pedem tuum: neque dormitet qui custodit te.
4 See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.
Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.
5 Yahweh is your guardian; Yahweh is the shade at 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 Yahweh will protect you from all harm, and he will protect your life.
Dominus custodit te ab omni malo: custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
8 Yahweh will protect you in all you do now and forevermore.
Dominus custodiat introitum tuum, et exitum tuum: ex hoc nunc, et usque in saeculum.
