# he who protects ... the guardian
|
|

These two phrases means the same thing, and emphasize God's role as a protector. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

# he who protects you will not slumber
|

Here to "slumber" means he would stop protecting. The negative form strengthens the statement. Alternate translation: "God will not fall asleep and stop protecting you" or "God will always protect you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublenegatives]])
