< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of degrees. I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?
Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Nnyimusa amaaso gange eri ensozi, okubeerwa kwange kuva wa?
2 My help [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
Okubeerwa kwange kuva eri Mukama, eyakola eggulu n’ensi.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Taliganya kigere kyo kusagaasagana; oyo akukuuma taabongootenga.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Laba, oyo akuuma Isirayiri taabongootenga so teyeebakenga.
5 Jehovah is thy keeper, Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand;
Mukama ye mukuumi wo; Mukama y’akusiikiriza ku mukono gwo ogwa ddyo;
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
emisana enjuba teekwokyenga, wadde omwezi ekiro.
7 Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; he will keep thy soul.
Mukama anaakukuumanga mu buli kabi; anaalabiriranga obulamu bwo.
8 Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth and for evermore.
Mukama anaakukumanga amagenda go n’amadda, okuva leero n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
