Psalms 121
Reading Psalms chapter 121 in the Young's Literal Translation, public-domain text from 1898.
Verses 1–8
1 A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, Whence doth my help come?
2 My help is from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
3 He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.
4 Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving Israel.
5 Jehovah is thy preserver, Jehovah is thy shade on thy right hand,
6 By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.
7 Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve thy soul.
8 Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From henceforth even unto the age!
