Psalms 121

1 I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.

Nzembo ya mobembo tango bazalaki kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe. Natomboli miso na ngai na ngambo ya bangomba: lisungi na ngai ekowuta wapi?

2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Lisungi na ngai ewutaka na Yawe oyo akela likolo mpe mabele.

3 May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.

Akotika te ete lokolo na yo eselumuka; Ye oyo abatelaka yo animbaka te.

4 Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.

Te, Ye oyo abatelaka Isalaele animbaka te mpe alalaka pongi te!

5 The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.

Yawe azali mobateli na yo; Yawe azali, na ngambo ya loboko na yo ya mobali, lokola elili oyo ebatelaka yo.

6 The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.

Ezala na moyi to na butu, moyi mpe sanza ekosala yo mabe ata moke te!

7 The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.

Yawe akobatela yo na mabe nyonso, akobatela bomoi na yo;

8 May the Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.

Yawe akobatela kokende mpe kozonga na yo, sik’oyo mpe libela na libela.
