< Psalms 121 >

1 The song of greces. I reiside myn iyen to the hillis; fro whannus help schal come to me.
A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. O whence shall help for me come?
2 Myn help is of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.
From the Lord comes help to me the creator of heaven and earth.
3 The Lord yyue not thi foot in to mouyng; nether he nappe, that kepith thee.
Your foot he will not let totter: he who guards you will not sleep.
4 Lo! he schal not nappe, nether slepe; that kepith Israel.
The guardian of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord kepith thee; the Lord is thi proteccioun aboue thi riythond.
The Lord is he who guards you your shelter upon your right hand.
6 The sunne schal not brenne thee bi dai; nether the moone bi nyyt.
The sun by day shall not strike you, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord kepe thee fro al yuel; the Lord kepe thi soule.
From all evil the Lord will guard you, he will guard your life.
8 The Lord kepe thi goyng in and thi goyng out; fro this tyme now and in to the world.
The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.
