< Psalms 121 >
1 A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. From where will my help come?
Ɔsoroforo dwom. Mema mʼani so kyerɛ mmepɔw no, ɛhe na me mmoa fi bɛba?
2 My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
Me mmoa fi Awurade, ɔsoro ne asase yɛfo no.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; he who protects you will not slumber.
Ɔremma wo nan nwatiri, nea ɔhwɛ wo no rentɔ nko.
4 See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.
Ampa ara, nea ɔhwɛ Israel no rentɔ nko na ɔrenna.
5 Yahweh is your guardian; Yahweh is the shade at your right hand.
Awurade hwɛ wo so; Awurade ne wo nwini wɔ wo nsa nifa so;
6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
Owia rensɛe wo wɔ adekyee mu, na ɔsram nso rensɛe wo anadwo.
7 Yahweh will protect you from all harm, and he will protect your life.
Awurade bɛbɔ wo ho ban afi ɔsɛe nyinaa ho, ɔbɛhwɛ wo nkwa so;
8 Yahweh will protect you in all you do now and forevermore.
Awurade bɛhwɛ wʼadifi ne wo fieba so mprempren ne daa.
