א שִׁיר, לַמַּעֲלוֹת:
אֶשָּׂא עֵינַי, אֶל-הֶהָרִים-- מֵאַיִן, יָבֹא עֶזְרִי. | 1 A Song of Ascents. {N}
I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come? |
| ב עֶזְרִי, מֵעִם יְהוָה-- עֹשֵׂה, שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ. | 2 My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. |
| ג אַל-יִתֵּן לַמּוֹט רַגְלֶךָ; אַל-יָנוּם, שֹׁמְרֶךָ. | 3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber. |
| ד הִנֵּה לֹא-יָנוּם, וְלֹא יִישָׁן-- שׁוֹמֵר, יִשְׂרָאֵל. | 4 Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep. |
| ה יְהוָה שֹׁמְרֶךָ; יְהוָה צִלְּךָ, עַל-יַד יְמִינֶךָ. | 5 The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. |
| ו יוֹמָם, הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ לֹא-יַכֶּכָּה; וְיָרֵחַ בַּלָּיְלָה. | 6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. |
| ז יְהוָה, יִשְׁמָרְךָ מִכָּל-רָע: יִשְׁמֹר, אֶת-נַפְשֶׁךָ. | 7 The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul. |
| ח יְהוָה, יִשְׁמָר-צֵאתְךָ וּבוֹאֶךָ-- מֵעַתָּה, וְעַד-עוֹלָם. | 8 The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever. {P} |
