Zaburi 121

1 Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Nayainua macho yangu nitazame vilima, msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?

2 Msaada wangu hutoka kwa Bwana, Muumba wa mbingu na dunia.

My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze, yeye akulindaye hatasinzia,

He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.

4 hakika, yeye alindaye Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi.

Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Bwana anakulinda, Bwana ni uvuli wako mkono wako wa kuume,

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

6 jua halitakudhuru mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.

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

7 Bwana atakukinga na madhara yote, atayalinda maisha yako,

The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.

8 Bwana atakulinda unapoingia na unapotoka, tangu sasa na hata milele.

The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.
