The Lord the Keeper of Israel.

1 A Song of Ascents.
I will (A)lift up my eyes to (B)the mountains;
From where shall my help come?
2
My (C)help comes from the Lord,
Who (D)made heaven and earth.
3
He will not (E)allow your foot to slip;
He who (F)keeps you will not slumber.
4
Behold, He who keeps Israel
Will neither slumber nor sleep.
5
The Lord is your (G)keeper;
The Lord is your (H)shade on your right hand.
6
The (I)sun will not smite you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
7
The Lord will (a)(J)protect you from all evil;
He will keep your soul.
8
The Lord will (b)(K)guard your going out and your coming in
(L)From this time forth and forever.
