Mapisarema 121

1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Ndinosimudzira meso angu kumakomo, kubatsirwa kwangu kunobvepiko?

A Song of degrees. I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help.

2 Rubatsiro rwangu runobva kuna Jehovha, muiti wokudenga napasi.

My help [cometh] from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

3 Haangatenderi rutsoka rwako kuti rutedzemuke, muchengeti wako haangakotsiri;

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 zvirokwazvo, muchengeti waIsraeri haangakotsiri kana kuvata.

Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Jehovha anokurinda, Jehovha ndiye mumvuri wako kuruoko rwako rworudyi;

The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand.

6 zuva haringakubayi masikati, kana mwedzi usiku.

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

7 Jehovha achakuchengeta pane zvose zvinokuvadza, iye acharinda upenyu hwako;

The LORD will preserve thee from all evil: he will preserve thy soul.

8 Jehovha achakurinda pakubuda kwako napakupinda kwako, kubva zvino uye nokusingaperi.

The LORD will preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for ever.
