My Help Comes from Yahweh

A Song of Ascents.

121 I will (A)lift up my eyes to (B)the mountains;
From where shall my help come?
My (C)help comes from Yahweh,
Who (D)made heaven and earth.
[a]He will not (E)allow your foot to stumble;
[b]He who (F)keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, He who keeps Israel
Will not slumber and will not sleep.

Yahweh is your (G)keeper;
Yahweh is your (H)shade on your right hand.
The (I)sun will not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
Yahweh will (J)keep you from all evil;
He will keep your soul.
Yahweh will (K)keep your going out and your coming in
(L)From now until forever.

Assurance of God’s Protection

A Song of Ascents.

121 I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From whence does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
    who made heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot be moved,
    he who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, he who keeps Israel
    will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper;
    the Lord is your shade
    on your right hand.
The sun shall not smite you by day,
    nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all evil;
    he will keep your life.
The Lord will keep
    your going out and your coming in
    from this time forth and for evermore.
