- Chapter 121 -

I lift up my eyes to the mountains

1
When we travel toward Jerusalem, I look up toward the hills and I ask myself, “Who will help me?”
2
My answer is that Yahweh is the one who helps me; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.
3
He will not allow us to fall; God, who protects us, will not fall asleep.
4
The one who protects us Israelite people never gets sleepy or sleeps.
5
Yahweh watches over us; he is like the shade that protects us from the sun.
6
He will not allow the sun to harm us during the day, and he will not allow the moon to harm us during the night.
7
Yahweh will protect us from being harmed in any manner; he will keep us safe.
8
He will protect us from the time that we leave our houses in the morning until we return in the evening; he will protect us now and he will protect us forever.
