1I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains:
From whence shall my help come?
Who made heaven and earth.
3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved:
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4Behold, he that keepeth Israel
Will neither slumber nor sleep.
Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6The sun shall not smite thee by day,
Nor the moon by night.
7Jehovah will keep thee from all evil;
He will keep thy soul.
8Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in
From this time forth and for evermore.

About American Standard VersionThe ASV has long been regarded by many scholars as the most literal English translation since the King James Version—maybe the most literal translation ever. This has made the translation very popular for careful English Bible study, but not for ease of reading. While the KJV was translated entirely from “western manuscripts,” the ASV 1901 was influenced also by the older “eastern manuscripts” that form the basis for most of our modern English translations. Because the ASV 1901 is very difficult to find in print, Logos is pleased to be able to preserve and distribute this significant work. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study. |
