Psalm 121, verse by verse
Each verse is given twice: first in the King James Version, then in the World Bible Guide plain reading.
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
I will raise my gaze to the mountains, from where my aid arrives.
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
My assistance flows from the Creator, the architect of the universe and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
He will always keep you steady and secure; your protector never sleeps.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Rest assured, the one who guards Israel never tires or falls asleep.
The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The Lord is your guardian, your comforting shadow, always by your side.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
Daytime's sun won't harm you, neither will the moon at night.
The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
The Lord will protect you from all harm; He will safeguard your spirit.
The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
God will always protect you, wherever you go or come, now and forever.

Hear it read aloud in the iPhone and iPad app, or bring a question about it to Simon Peter, Paul, Philip, John the Baptist, Judas Iscariot or Jesus. When an answer rests on a passage, you see which one. Each person is an interpretation drawn from the text, never the person.
