Psalms 121

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. I look to the hills—but is that where my help comes from?

[Soko On in Utyak] Nga fah ngetak nu fineol uh, Kasru luk ac fah tuku ya me?

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

Kasru luk tuku sin LEUM GOD me, Su orala kusrao ac faclu.

3 He will not let you fall; he who watches over you won't fall asleep.

El ac fah tia lela niom in mukuikui; El su liyekomyang fah tia motulla.

4 In fact he who watches over you doesn't take naps or fall asleep.

Liye, El su liyaung Israel Fah tiana motul ku folosuwosla.

5 The Lord keeps watch over you; the Lord protects you; he stands right beside you.

LEUM GOD El mwet liyaung lom; LEUM GOD El mwe lul lom lac poum layot.

6 The sun won't hurt you during the day, nor the moon at night.

Faht uh ac fah tia unikom ke len, Ku malem ke fong.

7 The Lord will protect you from all kinds of evil; he will keep you safe and sound.

LEUM GOD El ac fah liyekomyang liki ma koluk nukewa, El ac fah liyaung moul lom.

8 The Lord will look after you when you leave, and when you return, now and forever.

LEUM GOD El ac fah liyaung illa lom ac ilyak lom, Ingela ac nu tok ma pahtpat.
