Levavi oculos

1  I will lift up my eyes unto the hills; *
from whence comes my help?
2  My help comes from the Lord, *
who has made heaven and earth.
3  He will not let your foot be moved, *
and he who keeps you will not sleep.
4  Behold, he who keeps Israel *
shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5  The Lord himself is your keeper; *
the Lord is your defense upon your right hand,
6  So that the sun shall not burn you by day, *
neither the moon by night.
7  The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; *
indeed, it is he who shall keep your soul.
8  The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in, *
from this time forth for evermore.
