< Zaburi 121 >
1 Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?
A song of ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains. O whence shall help for me come?
2 Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.
From the Lord comes help to me the creator of heaven and earth.
3 Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.
Your foot he will not let totter: he who guards you will not sleep.
4 Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.
The guardian of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 Yahwe ni mlinzi wako; Yahwe ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.
The Lord is he who guards you your shelter upon your right hand.
6 Jua halitakudhuru wakati wa mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.
The sun by day shall not strike you, nor the moon by night.
7 Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.
From all evil the Lord will guard you, he will guard your life.
8 Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.
The Lord will guard your going and coming from now and for evermore.
