Psalms 121

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I lift up my eyes to the hills, From where does my help come?

Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngiphakamisela amehlo ami ezintabeni usizo lwami luvela ngaphi na?

2 My help [is] from YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth,

Usizo lwami luvela kuThixo, uMenzi wezulu lomhlaba.

3 He does not permit your foot to be moved, He who is preserving you does not slumber.

Kayikuyekela unyawo lwakho lutshelela yena okulindayo kayikuwozela;

4 Behold, He does not slumber, nor sleep, He who is preserving Israel.

ngempela yena olinda u-Israyeli akayikuwozela, akayikulala.

5 YHWH [is] He who is preserving you, YHWH [is] your shade on your right hand,

UThixo uyakulinda uThixo ungumthunzi wakho esandleni sakho sokunene;

6 By day the sun does not strike you, Nor the moon by night.

ilanga kaliyikukutshisa emini noma loba inyanga ebusuku.

7 YHWH preserves you from all evil, He preserves your soul.

UThixo uzakuvikela kuzozonke izingozi uzalinda impilo yakho;

8 YHWH preserves your going out and your coming in, From now on—even for all time!

uThixo uzalondoloza ukufika kwakho lokusuka kwakho manje kuze kube phakade.
