Psalm 121

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” I lift up mine eyes to the hills: Whence cometh my help?

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

My help cometh from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.

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

He will not suffer thy foot to stumble; Thy guardian doth not slumber.

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

Behold, the guardian of Israel Doth neither slumber nor sleep.

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

The LORD is thy guardian; The LORD is thy shade at thy right hand.

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

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

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

The LORD will preserve thee from all evil; He will preserve thy life.

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

The LORD will preserve thee, when thou goest out and when thou comest in, From this time forth for ever.
