Psalms 121

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

Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

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

Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.

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

Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.

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

Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.

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

Yahwe ni mlinzi wako; Yahwe ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.

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

Jua halitakudhuru wakati wa mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.

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

Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.

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

Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
