Psalmorum 121

1 Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.

A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?

2 Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.

My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

3 Non det in commotionem pedem tuum, neque dormitet qui custodit te.

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israël.

Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Dominus custodit te; Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam.

The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

6 Per diem sol non uret te, neque luna per noctem.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7 Dominus custodit te ab omni malo; custodiat animam tuam Dominus.

The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.

8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.

The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever.
