Psalm 121

121 I will lift up my eyes to the hills.
Where does my help come from?

who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to be moved.
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

He will keep your soul.
8 Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in,
from this time forward, and forever more.
