The Lord the Keeper of Israel
A Song of Ascents
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills [of Jerusalem]—from where shall my help come?
2 My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber [briefly] nor sleep [soundly].
5 The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will protect you from all evil; He will keep your life.
8 The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in [everything that you do] from this time forth and forever.
Psalm 121
