< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of the going up. My eyes are lifted up to the hills: O where will my help come from?
Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?
2 Your help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.
3 May he not let your foot be moved: no need of sleep has he who keeps you.
Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.
4 See, the eyes of Israel's keeper will not be shut in sleep.
Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.
5 The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
Yahwe ni mlinzi wako; Yahwe ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.
6 You will not be touched by the sun in the day, or by the moon at night.
Jua halitakudhuru wakati wa mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.
7 The Lord will keep you safe from all evil; he will take care of your soul.
Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.
8 The Lord will keep watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time and for ever.
Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
