Psalm 121

The Lord the Keeper of Israel.

A Song of Ascents.

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

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