Psalms 121

1 A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, Whence doth my help come?

[A Song of Ascents.] I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

2 My help [is] from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

My help comes from Jehovah, who made heaven and earth.

3 He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.

He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving Israel.

Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Jehovah [is] thy preserver, Jehovah [is] thy shade on thy right hand,

Jehovah is your keeper. Jehovah is your shade on your right hand.

6 By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.

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

7 Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve thy soul.

Jehovah will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

8 Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From henceforth even unto the age!

Jehovah will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.
