< Psalmorum 121 >

1 Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.
2 Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit caelum et terram.
My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
3 Non det in commotionem pedem tuum: neque dormitet qui custodit te.
May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.
4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.
Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.
5 Dominus custodit te, Dominus protectio tua, super manum dexteram tuam.
The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.
6 Per diem sol non uret te: neque luna per noctem.
The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.
7 Dominus custodit te ab omni malo: custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.
8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum, et exitum tuum: ex hoc nunc, et usque in saeculum.
May the Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.
