Psalm

The Lord, the Keeper of Israel.

A Song of Ascents.

121 
I will raise my eyes to the mountains;

From where will my help come?

My help comes from the Lord,

Who made heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to slip;

He who watches over you will not slumber.

Behold, He who watches over Israel

Will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your [a]protector;

The Lord is your shade on your right hand.

The sun will not [b]beat down on you by day,

Nor the moon by night.

The Lord will [c]protect you from all evil;

He will keep your soul.

The Lord will [d]guard your going out and your coming in

From this time and forever.
