Psalms 121

1 A Song of Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.

Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

2 My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.

3 Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.

Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.

4 Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.

Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.

5 The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.

Yahwe ni mlinzi wako; Yahwe ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.

6 The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.

Jua halitakudhuru wakati wa mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.

7 May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.

Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.

8 The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.

Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
