| English Standard Version | New International Version |
| 1I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? | 1A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the mountains-- where does my help come from? |
| 2My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. | 2My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. |
| 3He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. | 3He will not let your foot slip-- he who watches over you will not slumber; |
| 4Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. | 4indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. |
| 5The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand. | 5The LORD watches over you-- the LORD is your shade at your right hand; |
| 6The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. | 6the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. |
| 7The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. | 7The LORD will keep you from all harm-- he will watch over your life; |
| 8The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore. | 8the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. |
