A Song of Ascents. ¹ I will lift up my eyes to the mountains;
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 nor sleep. ⁵ The LORD is your keeper;
The LORD is your shade on your right hand. ⁶ The sun will not smite you by day,
Nor the moon by night. ⁷ The LORD will protect you from all evil;
He will keep your soul. ⁸ The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in
From this time forth and forever.
