Psalmorum 121

1 canticum graduum levavi oculos meos in montes unde veniet auxilium mihi

A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains; from thence help will 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 allow your foot to be moved, and may he not slumber, who guards you.

4 ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israhel

Behold, he who guards Israel will neither sleep, nor slumber.

5 Dominus custodit te Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam

The Lord is your keeper, the Lord is your protection, above your right hand.

6 per diem sol non uret te neque luna per noctem

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

7 Dominus custodit te ab omni malo custodiat animam tuam Dominus

The Lord guards you from all evil. May the Lord guard your soul.

8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum

May the Lord guard your entrance and your exit, from this time forward and even forever.
