2 O socorro vir-me-á do Senhor, que é o Criador dos céus e da Terra.4 Não, de maneira nenhuma deixará que o sono lhe pese nas pálpebras; não adormecerá nem pela fadiga, nem pela incúria.6 Será o teu defensor, tanto de dia como de noite.7 Protege-te de todo o mal; guarda a tua alma.8 Presta atenção quando entras, quando sais; sabe tudo o que fazes - hoje, amanhã e sempre!

1 A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains: From where will my help come?2 My help [comes] from Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth.3 He will not allow your foot to be moved: He who keeps you will not slumber.4 Look, he who keeps Israel Will neither slumber nor sleep.5 Yahweh is your keeper: Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.6 The sun will not strike you by day, Nor the moon by night.7 Yahweh will keep you from all evil; He will keep your soul.8 Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in From this time forth and forevermore.
