Thaburi 121

1 Thaburi ya Agendi Nĩngũtiira maitho makwa ndore irĩma-inĩ: ũteithio wakwa ũngiuma na kũ?

A song of the ascents I lift up eyes my to the mountains from where? will it come help my.

2 Ũteithio wakwa uumaga kũrĩ Jehova, o we Mũũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ.

Help my [is] from with Yahweh maker of heaven and earth.

3 We ndangĩreka kũgũrũ gwaku gũtirũke: ũcio mũmenyereri waku ndarĩ hĩndĩ angĩcũnga;

May not he permit to slip foot your may not he slumber protector your.

4 ti-itherũ, ũcio mũmenyereri wa Isiraeli ndarĩ hĩndĩ angĩcũnga, kana ahĩtwo nĩ toro.

There! not he will slumber and not he will sleep [the] protector of Israel.

5 Jehova nĩwe ũkũmenyagĩrĩra: Jehova nĩwe kĩĩruru gĩaku guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo;

Yahweh [is] protector your Yahweh [is] shade your at [the] hand of right your.

6 mũthenya wee ndũngĩringĩka nĩ riũa, kana ũringĩke nĩ mweri ũtukũ.

By day the sun not it will strike you and [the] moon in the night.

7 Jehova nĩarĩkũgitagĩra kuuma ũũru-inĩ wothe: nĩarĩĩmenyagĩrĩra muoyo waku;

Yahweh he will protect you from all harm he will protect life your.

8 Jehova nĩarĩkũmenyagĩrĩra ũkiumagara na ũgĩcooka, kuuma rĩu nginya tene na tene.

Yahweh he will protect going out you and coming you from now and until perpetuity.
