1 The song of degrees. I raised mine eyes to the hills; from whence help shall come to me. (I raised up my eyes to the hills, or the mountains; O where shall I find help?/from where help shall come to me.)
1
(120-1) I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.
2 Mine help is of the Lord; that made heaven and earth. (My help is from the Lord; who made heaven and earth.)
2
(120-2) My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
3 The Lord give not thy foot into moving; neither he nap, that keepeth thee. (The Lord shall not let thy foot slip, or stumble; nor shall he nap, who keepeth thee safe.)
3
(120-3) May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.
4 Lo! he shall not nap, neither sleep; that keepeth Israel. (Lo! he, who keepeth Israel safe; shall not nap, or sleep.)
4
(120-4) Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.
5 The Lord keepeth thee; the Lord is thy protection above thy right hand. (The Lord keepeth thee safe; the Lord is thy protection at thy right hand.)

(120-5) The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not burn thee by day; neither the moon by night.
6
(120-6) The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord keep thee from all evil; the Lord keep thy soul. (The Lord shall keep thee safe from all evil; yea, the Lord shall keep thee safe.)

8 The Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from this time now and into the world. (The Lord shall guard thy coming in, and thy going out; from this time now, and forever.)
8
(120-8) May the Lord keep thy coming in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.
