1 My eyes are lifted up to the hills: O where will my help come from?

1 I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?

2Your help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

2 My help [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.

3May he not let your foot be moved: no need of sleep has he who keeps you.

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

4See, the eyes of Israel's keeper will not be shut in sleep.

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand.

5 Jehovah is thy keeper, Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand;

6You will not be touched by the sun in the day, or by the moon at night.

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

7The Lord will keep you safe from all evil; he will take care of your soul.

7 Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; he will keep thy soul.

8The Lord will keep watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time and for ever.

8 Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth and for evermore.
