Psalms 121

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

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Mema mʼani so kyerɛ mmepɔw no, ɛhe na me mmoa fi bɛba?

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

Me mmoa fi Awurade, ɔsoro ne asase yɛfo no.

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

Ɔremma wo nan nwatiri, nea ɔhwɛ wo no rentɔ nko.

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

Ampa ara, nea ɔhwɛ Israel no rentɔ nko na ɔrenna.

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

Awurade hwɛ wo so; Awurade ne wo nwini wɔ wo nsa nifa so;

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

Owia rensɛe wo wɔ adekyee mu, na ɔsram nso rensɛe wo anadwo.

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

Awurade bɛbɔ wo ho ban afi ɔsɛe nyinaa ho, ɔbɛhwɛ wo nkwa so;

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

Awurade bɛhwɛ wʼadifi ne wo fieba so mprempren ne daa.
