Psalm 121

Assurance of God’s Protection

A Song of Ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
    from where will my help come?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
    who made heaven and earth.(A)

3 He will not let your foot be moved;
    he who keeps you will not slumber.(B)
4 He who keeps Israel
    will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your keeper;
    the Lord is your shade at your right hand.(C)
6 The sun shall not strike you by day
    nor the moon by night.(D)

7 The Lord will keep you from all evil;
    he will keep your life.(E)
8 The Lord will keep
    your going out and your coming in
    from this time on and forevermore.(F)
