Chapter 619 of 1256

Psalms 121

121

121:1 <<A Song of degrees.>> I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

[1] {song of degrees} Literally, "of ascents." Perhaps chanted by the people as they went up to Jerusalem to the feasts. # Ps 122:1,2

121:2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

121:5 The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand.

121:6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

121:7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

121:8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
