< Nnwom 121 >
1 Ɔsoroforɔ dwom. Mema mʼani so kyerɛ mmepɔ no, ɛhe na me mmoa firi bɛba?
A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?
2 Me mmoa firi Awurade, ɔsoro ne asase yɛfoɔ no.
My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
3 Ɔremma wo nan nwatiri, deɛ ɔhwɛ wo no, ɔrentɔ nko.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Ampa ara deɛ ɔhwɛ Israel no rentɔ nko na ɔrenna.
Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.
5 Awurade hwɛ wo so; Awurade ne wo nwunu wɔ wo nsa nifa so;
The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 Owia renhye wo wɔ awiaberɛ mu, na ɔsrane nso renha wo anadwo.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 Awurade bɛbɔ wo ho ban afiri ɔhaw nyinaa ho, ɔbɛhwɛ wo nkwa so;
The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.
8 Awurade bɛhwɛ wʼadifire ne wo efieba so, seesei ne daa.
The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever.
