Psalm 121

Assurance of God’s Protection

A Song of Ascents.

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

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

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

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