< Psalms 121 >
1 The song of greces. I reiside myn iyen to the hillis; fro whannus help schal come to me.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” I lift up mine eyes to the hills: Whence cometh my help?
2 Myn help is of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.
My help cometh from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
3 The Lord yyue not thi foot in to mouyng; nether he nappe, that kepith thee.
He will not suffer thy foot to stumble; Thy guardian doth not slumber.
4 Lo! he schal not nappe, nether slepe; that kepith Israel.
Behold, the guardian of Israel Doth neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord kepith thee; the Lord is thi proteccioun aboue thi riythond.
The LORD is thy guardian; The LORD is thy shade at thy right hand.
6 The sunne schal not brenne thee bi dai; nether the moone bi nyyt.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, Nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord kepe thee fro al yuel; the Lord kepe thi soule.
The LORD will preserve thee from all evil; He will preserve thy life.
8 The Lord kepe thi goyng in and thi goyng out; fro this tyme now and in to the world.
The LORD will preserve thee, when thou goest out and when thou comest in, From this time forth for ever.
