Psalms 121

1 “A song for the degrees.” I lift up my eyes unto the mountains: whence shall come my help?

Faarfannaa Ol baʼuu. Ani ija koo gara tulluuwwaniitti ol nan qabadha; gargaarsi koo eessaa dhufa?

2 My help is from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.

Gargaarsi koo Waaqayyo samii fi lafa uume biraa dhufa.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to slip: thy keeper doth not slumber.

Inni akka miilli kee mucucaatu hin godhu; kan si eegu hin mugu;

4 Behold, he slumbereth not, and he sleepeth not—the keeper of Israel.

dhugumaan inni Israaʼelin eegu hin mugu; hin rafus.

5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade, he is on thy right hand.

Waaqayyo si eega; Waaqayyo karaa mirga keetiitiin gaaddisa siif taʼa;

6 By day the sun shall not strike thee, nor the moon by night.

guyyaa aduun si hin gubu; halkanis jiʼi si hin miidhu.

7 The Lord will guard thee against all evil: he will guard thy soul.

Waaqayyo miidhaa hunda irraa si eega; inni lubbuu kee ni eega;

8 The Lord will guard thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth and for evermore.

Waaqayyo ammaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti, baʼuu fi galuu kee ni eega.
