Hungarian text
Ének a fölmenetekre. A hegyekre emelem szemeimet, onnét jő segítség nekem.
Az én segítségem az Úrtól van, ki a mennyet és földet teremtette.
Nem hagyja ingadozni lábadat, és nem szunnyadoz, ki tégedet őríz.
Ime nem szunnyadoz és nem aluszik, ki őrzi Izraelt.
Az Úr őriz téged, az Úr a te oltalmad jobb kezed felől.
Nappal nem éget téged a nap, sem éjjel a hold.
Az Úr megőríz téged minden gonosztól, őrizze meg az Úr lelkedet.
Őrizzen az Úr jártodban és keltedben, mostantól és mindörökké.

Metrical paraphrase by James Merrick
English text
1 Lo, from the hills my help descends,
To them I lift mine eyes;
My strength on him alone depends
Who form'd the earth and skies.
2 He ever watchful, ever nigh,
Forbids thy feet to slide;
Nor sleep nor slumber seals the eye
Of Israel's guard and guide.
3 He at thy hand, array'd in might,
His shield shall o'er thee spread:
Nor sun by day, nor moon by night,
Shall hurt thy favour'd head.
4 Safe shalt thou go, and safe return,
While he thy life defends,
Whose eyes thy ev'ry step discern,
Whose mercy never ends.
