English text

The Lord himself is thy keeper,
the Lord is thy defense upon thy right hand.

The sun shall not burn thee by day,
neither the moon by night.
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil,
yea, it is even He that shall keep thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and coming in,
from this time forth for evermore.

Our help standeth in the Name of the Lord,
Who hath made heaven and earth,
give thee blessing out of Sion.
