Psalms 121

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

Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

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

Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.

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

Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.

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

Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.

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

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

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

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

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

Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.

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

Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
