Psalm 121

1 [Soko On in Utyak] Nga fah ngetak nu fineol uh, Kasru luk ac fah tuku ya me?

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I lift up my eyes to the hills, From where does my help come?

2 Kasru luk tuku sin LEUM GOD me, Su orala kusrao ac faclu.

My help [is] from YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth,

3 El ac fah tia lela niom in mukuikui; El su liyekomyang fah tia motulla.

He does not permit your foot to be moved, He who is preserving you does not slumber.

4 Liye, El su liyaung Israel Fah tiana motul ku folosuwosla.

Behold, He does not slumber, nor sleep, He who is preserving Israel.

5 LEUM GOD El mwet liyaung lom; LEUM GOD El mwe lul lom lac poum layot.

YHWH [is] He who is preserving you, YHWH [is] your shade on your right hand,

6 Faht uh ac fah tia unikom ke len, Ku malem ke fong.

By day the sun does not strike you, Nor the moon by night.

7 LEUM GOD El ac fah liyekomyang liki ma koluk nukewa, El ac fah liyaung moul lom.

YHWH preserves you from all evil, He preserves your soul.

8 LEUM GOD El ac fah liyaung illa lom ac ilyak lom, Ingela ac nu tok ma pahtpat.

YHWH preserves your going out and your coming in, From now on—even for all time!
