cometh my heip. My heip cometh from the Lord, which made
heaven and earth. He wiii not suffer thy foot to be moved; he
that keepeth the wiii not siumber. Behoid, he that keepeth
israei shail neither siumber not sleep. The Lord is thy keeper;
the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shaii not
smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shaii
preserve thee from ali evii; He shaii preserve thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in
from this time forth, and even for evermore.
