Psalms 121

1 A Song of degrees. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

Ngizaphakamisela amehlo ami ezintabeni, lapho usizo lwami oluzavela khona.

2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, which 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 shall 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 preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

INkosi izakulondoloza kukho konke okubi; izalondoloza umphefumulo wakho.

8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

INkosi izalondoloza ukuphuma kwakho lokungena kwakho, kusukela khathesi kuze kube phakade.
