< Psalmorum 121 >

1 Canticum graduum. [Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. O whence shall help for me come?
2 Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.
From the Lord comes help to me the creator of heaven and earth.
3 Non det in commotionem pedem tuum, neque dormitet qui custodit te.
Your foot he will not let totter: he who guards you will not sleep.
4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israël.
The guardian of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 Dominus custodit te; Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam.
The Lord is he who guards you your shelter upon your right hand.
6 Per diem sol non uret te, neque luna per noctem.
The sun by day shall not strike you, nor the moon by night.
7 Dominus custodit te ab omni malo; custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
From all evil the Lord will guard you, he will guard your life.
8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.]
The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.
