Psalms 121

1 [When we travel toward Jerusalem], I look up toward the hills [and I ask myself], “Who will help me?”

Fihirana fiakarana.

2 [And my answer is] that Yahweh is the one who helps me; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.

Ny famonjena ahy dia avy amin’ i Jehovah, Mpanao ny lanitra sy ny tany.

3 He will not allow us to fall/stumble; God, who protects us, will not fall asleep.

Tsy mba havelany hangozohozo anie ny tongotrao; Tsy ho rendrehana anie ny Mpiaro anao.

4 The one who protects us Israeli people never gets sleepy, nor does he sleep [LIT].

Indro, tsy matory na rendrehana Ny Mpiaro ny Isiraely.

5 Yahweh watches over us; he is like the shade [MET] [that protects us from the sun].

Jehovah no Mpiaro anao; Jehovah no fialofanao eo amin’ ny an-kavananao.

6 [He will not allow] the sun to harm us during the day, and [he will not allow] the moon to harm us during the night.

Ny masoandro tsy mba hamely anao nony andro, Na ny volana nony alina.

7 Yahweh will protect us from being harmed in any manner; he will keep us safe.

Jehovah hiaro anao amin’ ny ratsy rehetra; Eny, hiaro ny fanahinao Izy.

8 He will protect us from the time that we leave [our houses in the morning] until we return [in the evening]; he will protect us now, and he will protect us forever.

Jehovah hiaro anao, na mivoaka na miditra, Hatramin’ izao ka ho mandrakizay.
