Psalms 121 – I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes Unto the Hills
A traveler's psalm of confidence in the LORD who neither slumbers nor sleeps.
Continuing straight from the complaint of Psalms 120, this psalm answers with confidence, opening with its best-known line, Psalms 121:1, 'I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.'
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from יהוה, which made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
יהוה is thy keeper: יהוה is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
יהוה shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
יהוה shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
