Psalm 120 (121)

Psalm 120, Catholic Public Domain Version

1. A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains; from thence help will come to me.

   Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.

2. 2

   My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

   Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.

3. 3

   May he not allow your foot to be moved, and may he not slumber, who guards you.

   Non det in commotionem pedem tuum, neque dormitet qui custodit te.

4. 4

   Behold, he who guards Israel will neither sleep, nor slumber.

   Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israël.

5. 5

   The Lord is your keeper, the Lord is your protection, above your right hand.

   Dominus custodit te; Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam.

6. 6

   The sun will not burn you by day, nor the moon by night.

   Per diem sol non uret te, neque luna per noctem.

7. 7

   The Lord guards you from all evil. May the Lord guard your soul.

   Dominus custodit te ab omni malo; custodiat animam tuam Dominus.

8. 8

   May the Lord guard your entrance and your exit, from this time forward and even forever.

   Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
