Psalmorum 121

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

A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

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

My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

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

He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet, qui custodit Israel.

Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

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

Yahweh is your keeper. Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.

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

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

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

Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

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

Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.
