Psalms 121

1 A Song of degrees. I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help.

He waiata; he pikitanga. Ka anga atu oku kanohi ki nga maunga; no reira nei te awhina moku.

2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

No Ihowa te awhina moku, no te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

E kore ia e tuku i tou waewae kia nekehia; e kore tou kaitiaki e moe.

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

Ina, e kore te kaitiaki o Iharaira e parangia, e moe.

5 The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand.

Ko Ihowa tou kaitiaki, ko Ihowa tou whakamarumaru i tou matau.

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

E kore koe e pakia e te ra i te awatea, e te marama ranei i te po.

7 The LORD will preserve thee from all evil: he will preserve thy soul.

Ma Ihowa koe e tiaki i roto i nga kino katoa; mana e tiaki tou wairua.

8 The LORD will preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for ever.

Ma Ihowa e tiaki tou haerenga atu, me tou haerenga mai aianei a ake tonu atu.
