which may be an answer to this."

3.2 The LORD Guards His People: 

He Helps Those Who Seek Him 

(Psalm 121) 

Psalm 121 

1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills—

From whence comes my help?

2 My help comes from the Lord,

Who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved;

He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Behold, He who keeps Israel

Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your keeper;

The Lord is your shade at your right hand.

6 The sun shall not strike you by day,

Nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve you from all evil;

He shall preserve your soul.

8 The Lord shall preserve your going out 

and your coming in from this time forth, 

and even forevermore.

(NKJV)
