| New Living Translation (NLT) |
New International Version (NIV) |
|
1 A song for the ascent to Jerusalem. I look up to the mountains -- does my help come from there?
|
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills-- where does my help come from?
|
|
2 My help comes from the LORD, who made the heavens and the earth!
|
2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
|
|
3 He will not let you stumble and fall; the one who watches over you will not sleep.
|
3 He will not let your foot slip-- he who watches over you will not slumber;
|
|
4 Indeed, he who watches over Israel never tires and never sleeps.
|
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
|
|
5 The LORD himself watches over you! The LORD stands beside you as your protective shade.
|
5 The LORD watches over you-- the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
|
|
6 The sun will not hurt you by day, nor the moon at night.
|
6 the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
|
|
7 The LORD keeps you from all evil and preserves your life.
|
7 The LORD will keep you from all harm-- he will watch over your life;
|
|
8 The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.
|
8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
