A Song of degrees.
1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
From whence cometh my help.
Nitayainua macho yangu niitazame milima, Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?
2 My help cometh from the LORD,
Which made heaven and earth.
Msaada wangu u katika Bwana, Aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved:
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Asiuache mguu wako usogezwe; Asisinzie akulindaye;
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Naam, hatasinzia wala hatalala usingizi, Yeye aliye mlinzi wa Israeli.
5 The LORD is thy keeper:
The LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
Bwana ndiye mlinzi wako; Bwana ni uvuli mkono wako wa kuume.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day,
Nor the moon by night.
Jua halitakupiga mchana, Wala mwezi wakati wa usiku.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil:
He shall preserve thy soul.
Bwana atakulinda na mabaya yote, Atakulinda nafsi yako.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in
From this time forth, and even for evermore.
Bwana atakulinda utokapo na uingiapo, Tangu sasa na hata milele.
