< Psalms 121 >

1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?
A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.
2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.
4 Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.
The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.
6 The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.
7 The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.
May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.
8 The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.
