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

1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

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

2My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.

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

3He 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.

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

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

5The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.

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

6The 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.

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

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

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