Zabbuli 121

1 Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Nnyimusa amaaso gange eri ensozi, okubeerwa kwange kuva wa?

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

2 Okubeerwa kwange kuva eri Mukama, eyakola eggulu n’ensi.

My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

3 Taliganya kigere kyo kusagaasagana; oyo akukuuma taabongootenga.

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

4 Laba, oyo akuuma Isirayiri taabongootenga so teyeebakenga.

Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Mukama ye mukuumi wo; Mukama y’akusiikiriza ku mukono gwo ogwa ddyo;

The LORD is your keeper. The LORD is your shade on your right hand.

6 emisana enjuba teekwokyenga, wadde omwezi ekiro.

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

7 Mukama anaakukuumanga mu buli kabi; anaalabiriranga obulamu bwo.

The LORD will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

8 Mukama anaakukumanga amagenda go n’amadda, okuva leero n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.

The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.
