Psalms 121

1 A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.

A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?

2 My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.

He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.

4 Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.

Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.

The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.

6 The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.

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

7 May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.

The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.

8 The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.

The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
