Psalm 121

New International Version

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

¹I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
²My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven^(A) and earth.^(B)

³He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
⁴indeed, he who watches^(C) over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

⁵The Lord watches over^(D) you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
⁶the sun^(E) will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

⁷The Lord will keep you from all harm^(F)—
he will watch over your life;
⁸the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.^(G)
