Zaburi 121

1 Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame milimani. Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?

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

2 Msaada wangu unatoka kwa Yahwe, aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.

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

3 Hatauacha mguu wako uteleze; yeye akulindaye hatasinzia.

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

4 Tazama, mlinzi wa Israeli hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi kamwe.

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

5 Yahwe ni mlinzi wako; Yahwe ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.

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

6 Jua halitakudhuru wakati wa mchana, wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.

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

7 Yahwe atakulinda na madhara yote, na ataulinda uhai wako.

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

8 Yahwe atakulinda katika yote ufanyayo sasa na hata milele.

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