121 A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, Whence doth my help come?

My help [is] from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.

Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving Israel.

Jehovah [is] thy preserver, Jehovah [is] thy shade on thy right hand,

By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.

Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve thy soul.

Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From henceforth even unto the age!

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
    where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven(A) and earth.(B)

He will not let your foot slip—
    he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches(C) over Israel
    will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord watches over(D) you—
    the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
the sun(E) will not harm you by day,
    nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all harm(F)
    he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
    both now and forevermore.(G)
