Psalms 121

Psalm 121

Assurance of God’s Protection

1I lift up my eyes to the hills—

from where will my help come?

2My help comes from the Lord ,[#Ps 115.15; 124.8]

who made heaven and earth.

3He will not let your foot be moved;[#Ps 66.9; 127.1]

he who keeps you will not slumber.

4He who keeps Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

5The Lord is your keeper;[#Ps 16.8; Isa 25.4]

the Lord is your shade at your right hand.

6The sun shall not strike you by day[#Ps 91.5; Isa 49.10; Rev 7.16]

nor the moon by night.

7The Lord will keep you from all evil;[#Ps 91.10–12]

he will keep your life.

8The Lord will keep[#Deut 28.6]

your going out and your coming in

from this time on and forevermore.
