Psalm 121

New International Reader’s Version

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.

1 I look up to the mountains. Where does my help come from? 

2 My help comes from the LORD. He is the Maker of heaven and earth. 

3 He won’t let your foot slip. He who watches over you won’t get tired. 

4 In fact, he who watches over Israel won’t get tired or go to sleep. 

5 The LORD watches over you. The LORD is like a shady tree at your right hand. 

6 The sun won’t harm you during the day. The moon won’t harm you during the night. 

7 The LORD will keep you from every kind of harm. He will watch over your life. 

8 The LORD will watch over your life no matter where you go, both now and for ever.
