A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the hills [of Jerusalem]— From where shall my help come?
My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, He who keeps Israel Will neither slumber [briefly] nor sleep [soundly].
The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your shade on your right hand.
The sun will not strike you by day, Nor the moon by night.
The LORD will protect you from all evil; He will keep your life.
The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in [everything that you do] From this time forth and forever.
