< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of degrees. I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” I lift up mine eyes to the hills: Whence cometh my help?
2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
My help cometh from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
He will not suffer thy foot to stumble; Thy guardian doth not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Behold, the guardian of Israel Doth neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand.
The LORD is thy guardian; The LORD is thy shade at thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, Nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will preserve thee from all evil: he will preserve thy soul.
The LORD will preserve thee from all evil; He will preserve thy life.
8 The LORD will preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for ever.
The LORD will preserve thee, when thou goest out and when thou comest in, From this time forth for ever.
