Darby Bible Translation

1 min read
1

{A Song of degrees.} I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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