1  I ^vlift up my eyes to ^wthe hills.

From where does my help come?

2  ^xMy help comes from the Lord,

who ^ymade heaven and earth.

3  He will not ^zlet your foot be moved;

he who ^akeeps you will not slumber.

4  Behold, he who keeps Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

5  The Lord is your keeper;

the Lord is your ^bshade on your ^cright hand.

6  ^dThe sun shall not ^estrike you by day,

nor the moon by night.

7  The Lord will ^akeep you from all evil;

he will ^akeep your life.

8  The Lord will keep

your ^fgoing out and your coming in

from this time forth and forevermore.
