Psalms 121

1 [A Song of Ascents.] I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

Thaburi ya Agendi Nĩngũtiira maitho makwa ndore irĩma-inĩ: ũteithio wakwa ũngiuma na kũ?

2 My help comes from Jehovah, who made heaven and earth.

Ũteithio wakwa uumaga kũrĩ Jehova, o we Mũũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

We ndangĩreka kũgũrũ gwaku gũtirũke: ũcio mũmenyereri waku ndarĩ hĩndĩ angĩcũnga;

4 Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

ti-itherũ, ũcio mũmenyereri wa Isiraeli ndarĩ hĩndĩ angĩcũnga, kana ahĩtwo nĩ toro.

5 Jehovah is your keeper. Jehovah is your shade on your right hand.

Jehova nĩwe ũkũmenyagĩrĩra: Jehova nĩwe kĩĩruru gĩaku guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo;

6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.

mũthenya wee ndũngĩringĩka nĩ riũa, kana ũringĩke nĩ mweri ũtukũ.

7 Jehovah will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

Jehova nĩarĩkũgitagĩra kuuma ũũru-inĩ wothe: nĩarĩĩmenyagĩrĩra muoyo waku;

8 Jehovah will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.

Jehova nĩarĩkũmenyagĩrĩra ũkiumagara na ũgĩcooka, kuuma rĩu nginya tene na tene.
