Psalms 121

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 A song of ascents. I raise my eyes toward the mountains. From where will my help come?	1 [Song of Ascents] I lift up my eyes to the mountains; where is my help to come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.	2 My help comes from Yahweh who made heaven and earth.
3 God will not allow your foot to slip; your guardian does not sleep.	3 May he save your foot from stumbling; may he, your guardian, not fall asleep!
4 Truly, the guardian of Israel never slumbers nor sleeps.	4 You see -- he neither sleeps nor slumbers, the guardian of Israel.
5 The LORD is your guardian; the LORD is your shade at your righthand.	5 Yahweh is your guardian, your shade, Yahweh, at your right hand.
6 By day the sun cannot harm you, nor the moon by night.	6 By day the sun will not strike you, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will guard you from all evil, will always guard your life.	7 Yahweh guards you from al harm Yahweh guards your life,
8 The LORD will guard your coming and going both now and forever.	8 Yahweh guards your comings and goings, henceforth and for ever.
