< Psalmorum 121 >
1 Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
A Song of degrees. I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help.
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 shall 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 will preserve thee from all evil: he will preserve thy soul.
8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
The LORD will preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for ever.
