Psalms 121

1 A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains; from thence help will come to me.

Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Atingʼo wangʼa ka arango gode, ere kuma konyruokna biro aye?

2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Konyruokna aa kuom Jehova Nyasaye, Jachwech polo gi piny.

3 May he not allow your foot to be moved, and may he not slumber, who guards you.

Ok obi weyo tiendi kier, Jal ma riti ok bi nur;

4 Behold, he who guards Israel will neither sleep, nor slumber.

adier, Jal marito Israel ok nur kendo ok nindi.

5 The Lord is your keeper, the Lord is your protection, above your right hand.

Jehova Nyasaye riti, Jehova Nyasaye e tipo moumi gi yo badi korachwich;

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

omiyo chiengʼ ok nochami godiechiengʼ kendo dwe ok notimi gimoro gotieno.

7 The Lord guards you from all evil. May the Lord guard your soul.

Jehova Nyasaye biro riti mondo gimoro amora kik ohinyi.

8 May the Lord guard your entrance and your exit, from this time forward and even forever.

Jehova Nyasaye biro riti kidonjo kendo kiwuok, obiro timo kamano sani kendo nyaka chiengʼ.
