Psalms 121

1 A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains; from thence help will come to me.

Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.

2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit caelum et terram.

3 May he not allow your foot to be moved, and may he not slumber, who guards you.

Non det in commotionem pedem tuum: neque dormitet qui custodit te.

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

Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.

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

Dominus custodit te, Dominus protectio tua, super manum dexteram tuam.

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

Per diem sol non uret te: neque luna per noctem.

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

Dominus custodit te ab omni malo: custodiat animam tuam Dominus.

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

Dominus custodiat introitum tuum, et exitum tuum: ex hoc nunc, et usque in saeculum.
