God the Help of Those Who Seek Him
A Song of Ascents.
1I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2My helpcomes from theLord,
Who made heaven and earth.
3He will not allow your foot to[a]be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5TheLordis your[b]keeper;
TheLordis your shade at your right hand.
6The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
7TheLord shall[c]preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
8TheLord shall preserve[d] your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
