< Psalms 121 >
1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?
Ɔsoroforo dwom. Mema mʼani so kyerɛ mmepɔw no, ɛhe na me mmoa fi bɛba?
2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Me mmoa fi Awurade, ɔsoro ne asase yɛfo no.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
Ɔremma wo nan nwatiri, nea ɔhwɛ wo no rentɔ nko.
4 Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Ampa ara, nea ɔhwɛ Israel no rentɔ nko na ɔrenna.
5 The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.
Awurade hwɛ wo so; Awurade ne wo nwini wɔ wo nsa nifa so;
6 The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
Owia rensɛe wo wɔ adekyee mu, na ɔsram nso rensɛe wo anadwo.
7 The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.
Awurade bɛbɔ wo ho ban afi ɔsɛe nyinaa ho, ɔbɛhwɛ wo nkwa so;
8 The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
Awurade bɛhwɛ wʼadifi ne wo fieba so mprempren ne daa.
