Psalms 121

The Lord the Keeper of Israel.

A Song of Ascents.

1I will 1lift up my eyes to 2the mountains; From where shall my help come?2My 3help comes from the Lord, Who 4made heaven and earth.3He will not 5allow your foot to slip; He who 6keeps you will not slumber.4Behold, He who keeps Israel Will neither slumber nor sleep.

5The Lord is your 7keeper; The Lord is your 8shade on your right hand.6The 9sun will not smite you by day, Nor the moon by night.7The Lord will 1011protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul.8The Lord will 1213guard your going out and your coming in 14From this time forth and forever.
