< Psalms 121 >
1 A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?
Ngizaphakamisela amehlo ami ezintabeni, lapho usizo lwami oluzavela khona.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Usizo lwami luvela eNkosini, eyenza amazulu lomhlaba.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Kayiyikuvuma ukuthi unyawo lwakho lutshelele; umlondolozi wakho kayikuwozela.
4 Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.
Khangela, umlondolozi kaIsrayeli kayikuwozela njalo kayikulala.
5 The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
INkosi ingumlondolozi wakho; iNkosi ingumthunzi wakho esandleni sakho sokunene.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
Ilanga kaliyikukutshaya emini, lenyanga ebusuku.
7 The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.
INkosi izakulondoloza kukho konke okubi; izalondoloza umphefumulo wakho.
8 The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever.
INkosi izalondoloza ukuphuma kwakho lokungena kwakho, kusukela khathesi kuze kube phakade.
