Psalms 121

1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the mountains. From where will help for me come?

Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

2 My help will come from the Lord the creator of heaven and earth.

Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.

3 Your foot he will not let stumble: he who guards you will not sleep.

Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.

4 He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.

5 The Lord himself protects you, is your shelter beside you.

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

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

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

7 From all harm the Lord will guard you, will watch over your life.

Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.

8 The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.

Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
