Psalms 121

1 A song of degrees. I will lift mine eyes vnto the mountaines, from whence mine helpe shall come.

He waiata; he pikitanga. Ka anga atu oku kanohi ki nga maunga; no reira nei te awhina moku.

2 Mine helpe commeth from the Lord, which hath made the heauen and the earth.

No Ihowa te awhina moku, no te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua.

3 He wil not suffer thy foote to slippe: for he that keepeth thee, will not slumber.

E kore ia e tuku i tou waewae kia nekehia; e kore tou kaitiaki e moe.

4 Beholde, he that keepeth Israel, wil neither slumber nor sleepe.

Ina, e kore te kaitiaki o Iharaira e parangia, e moe.

5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shadow at thy right hand.

Ko Ihowa tou kaitiaki, ko Ihowa tou whakamarumaru i tou matau.

6 The sunne shall not smite thee by day, nor the moone by night.

E kore koe e pakia e te ra i te awatea, e te marama ranei i te po.

7 The Lord shall preserue thee from all euil: he shall keepe thy soule.

Ma Ihowa koe e tiaki i roto i nga kino katoa; mana e tiaki tou wairua.

8 The Lord shall preserue thy going out, and thy comming in from henceforth and for euer.

Ma Ihowa e tiaki tou haerenga atu, me tou haerenga mai aianei a ake tonu atu.
