Psalms 121
Theme: We can depend upon God for help. Pilgrims must travel through lonely country to their destination; they are protected, not by anything created, but by the Creator of everything.
A Song of degrees.
1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. +
3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. +
4Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. +
6The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. +
7The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. +
8The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
