Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?
1I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.
2My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
2Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
3He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
3Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.
4Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
4For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.
5The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.
5Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.
6The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
6Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.
7The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.
7Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.
8The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
8For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.
