Psalms 121

1 Orin fún ìgòkè. Èmi yóò gbé ojú mi sórí òkè wọ̀n-ọn-nì— níbo ni ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi yóò ti wá?

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

2 Ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi tí ọwọ́ Olúwa wá, ẹni tí ó dá ọ̀run òun ayé.

My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

3 Òun kì yóò jẹ́ kí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ kí ó yẹ̀; ẹni tí ó pa ọ́ mọ́ kì í tòògbé.

He will not allow your foot to slip; he who protects you will not slumber.

4 Kíyèsi, ẹni tí ń pa Israẹli mọ́, kì í tòògbé bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í sùn.

See, the guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps.

5 Olúwa ni olùpamọ́ rẹ; Olúwa ní òjìji rẹ ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ.

Yahweh is your guardian; Yahweh is the shade at your right hand.

6 Oòrùn kì yóò pa ọ́ ní ìgbà ọ̀sán tàbí òṣùpá ní ìgbà òru.

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

7 Olúwa yóò pa ọ́ mọ́ kúrò nínú ibi gbogbo yóò pa ọkàn rẹ mọ́

Yahweh will protect you from all harm, and he will protect your life.

8 Olúwa yóò pa àlọ àti ààbọ̀ rẹ mọ́ láti ìgbà yìí lọ àti títí láéláé.

Yahweh will protect you in all you do now and forevermore.
