Psalms 121

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

Faarfannaa Ol baʼuu. Ani ija koo gara tulluuwwaniitti ol nan qabadha; gargaarsi koo eessaa dhufa?

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

Gargaarsi koo Waaqayyo samii fi lafa uume biraa dhufa.

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

Inni akka miilli kee mucucaatu hin godhu; kan si eegu hin mugu;

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

dhugumaan inni Israaʼelin eegu hin mugu; hin rafus.

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

Waaqayyo si eega; Waaqayyo karaa mirga keetiitiin gaaddisa siif taʼa;

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

guyyaa aduun si hin gubu; halkanis jiʼi si hin miidhu.

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

Waaqayyo miidhaa hunda irraa si eega; inni lubbuu kee ni eega;

8 Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.

Waaqayyo ammaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti, baʼuu fi galuu kee ni eega.
