< Psalms 121 >

1 [A Song of Ascents.] I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.
2 My help comes from YHWH, who made 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 be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.
Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.
4 Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.
5 YHWH is your keeper. YHWH is your shade on your right hand.
The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.
6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.
7 YHWH will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.
May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.
8 YHWH will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.
The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.
