Psalmorum 121

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

A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?

2 Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.

My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

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

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.

Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.

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

The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

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

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

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

The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.

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

The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever.
