1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills.
Where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from Adonai,
who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to be moved.
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel [God prevails]
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 Adonai is your keeper.
Adonai is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 Adonai will keep you from all evil.
He will keep your soul.
8 Adonai will keep your going out and your coming in,
from this time forward, and forever more.
