Psalms 121

PSALM 121

The LORD Guards His People

An ode of the steps.

1 I lifted my eyes unto the mountains, from where [²shall come ¹my help]. 2 My help is from the lord; of the one making the heaven and the earth. 3 May he not give [²to ³tossing about ¹your foot], nor should [⁴slumber ¹the one ²guarding ³you]. 4 Behold, [⁴shall not ⁵slumber ⁶nor ⁷sleep ¹the one ²guarding ³Israel]. 5 The lord shall guard you. The lord is protection to you at [²hand ¹your right]. 6 By day the sun shall not burn you, nor the moon by night. 7 The lord shall guard you from all evil; [³shall guard ⁴your soul ¹the ² lord]. 8 The lord shall guard your entrance and your exit, from the present and unto the eon.
