< Amahubo 121 >

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngiphakamisela amehlo ami ezintabeni usizo lwami luvela ngaphi na?
A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?
2 Usizo lwami luvela kuThixo, uMenzi wezulu lomhlaba.
My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
3 Kayikuyekela unyawo lwakho lutshelela yena okulindayo kayikuwozela;
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 ngempela yena olinda u-Israyeli akayikuwozela, akayikulala.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 UThixo uyakulinda uThixo ungumthunzi wakho esandleni sakho sokunene;
The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 ilanga kaliyikukutshisa emini noma loba inyanga ebusuku.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 UThixo uzakuvikela kuzozonke izingozi uzalinda impilo yakho;
The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; he shall keep thy soul.
8 uThixo uzalondoloza ukufika kwakho lokusuka kwakho manje kuze kube phakade.
The LORD shall keep thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for evermore.
