Salamo 121

1 Andrandrako mb’amo vohitseo o masokoo, aia ty hiboaha’ ty fañimbañ’ ahiko?

A Song of the going up. My eyes are lifted up to the hills: O where will my help come from?

2 Hirik’am’ Iehovà o fañolorañ’ ahikoo, I namboatse i likerañey naho ty tane toiy.

Your help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

3 Tsy henga’e hasitse o fandia’oo, tsy hirotse i Mpañaro azoy;

May he not let your foot be moved: no need of sleep has he who keeps you.

4 Eka, tsy hidròdreke, tsy hirotse ty Mpitamiri’ Israele.

See, the eyes of Israel's keeper will not be shut in sleep.

5 Iehovà ro Mpañambeñ’ azo, Iehovà ro fialofa’ ty fitàn-kavana’o;

The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand.

6 Tsy hipisañe ama’o i tariñandrokey, ndra i volañey te haleñe.

You will not be touched by the sun in the day, or by the moon at night.

7 Hañaro azo amy ze fonga haratiañe t’Iehovà; vaho ho tamirie’e ty fiai’o.

The Lord will keep you safe from all evil; he will take care of your soul.

8 Harova’ Iehovà ty fiengà’o naho ty fiziliha’o henane zao vaho nainai’e donia.

The Lord will keep watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time and for ever.
