Sabuurradii 121

1 Buurahaan indhahayga ku taagi doonaa, Caawimaaddaydu xaggee bay ka iman doontaa?

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

2 Caawimaaddaydu waxay ka timaadaa Rabbiga sameeyey samada iyo dhulka.

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

3 Isagu uma oggolaan doono in cagtaada la dhaqaajiyo, Kan ku dhawraa ma gam'i doono.

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

4 Bal eeg, kan reer binu Israa'iil dhawraa Ma gam'i doono, mana seexan doono.

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

5 Kan ku dhawraa waa Rabbiga, Rabbigu waa hooskaaga midigtaada taagan.

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

6 Qorraxdu maalinta waxba kuma yeeli doonto. Habeenkana dayaxu waxba kuma yeeli doono.

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

7 Rabbiga ayaa kaa dhawri doona shar kasta, Isagu wuxuu dhawri doonaa naftaada.

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

8 Hadda intii ka bilaabata iyo tan iyo weligeedba Rabbigu wuxuu dhawri doonaa bixiddaada iyo soo geliddaadaba.

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