2 My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
3 God won’t let your foot slip.Your protector won’t fall asleep on the job.
4 No! Israel’s protectornever sleeps or rests!
5 The Lord is your protector;the Lord is your shade right beside you.
6 The sun won’t strike you during the day;neither will the moon at night.
7 The Lord will protect you from all evil;God will protect your very life.
8 The Lord will protect you on your journeys—whether going or coming—from now until forever from now.
