Psalms 121— MSG

1I look up to the mountains; does my strength come from mountains?

2No, my strength comes from God, who made heaven, and earth, and mountains.

3He won't let you stumble, your Guardian God won't fall asleep.

4Not on your life! Israel's Guardian will never doze or sleep.

5God's your Guardian, right at your side to protect you -

6Shielding you from sunstroke, sheltering you from moonstroke.

7God guards you from every evil, he guards your very life.

8He guards you when you leave and when you return, he guards you now, he guards you always.
