Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

¹ I lift up my eyes to the mountains
where does my help come from?
² My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

³ He will not let your foot slip
he who watches over you will not slumber;
⁴ indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

⁵ The Lord watches over you
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
⁶ the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

⁷ The Lord will keep you from all harm
he will watch over your life;
⁸ the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
