Psalms 121

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

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Mema mʼani so kyerɛ mmepɔw no, ɛhe na me mmoa fi bɛba?

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

Me mmoa fi Awurade, ɔsoro ne asase yɛfo no.

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

Ɔremma wo nan nwatiri, nea ɔhwɛ wo no rentɔ nko.

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

Ampa ara, nea ɔhwɛ Israel no rentɔ nko na ɔrenna.

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

Awurade hwɛ wo so; Awurade ne wo nwini wɔ wo nsa nifa so;

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

Owia rensɛe wo wɔ adekyee mu, na ɔsram nso rensɛe wo anadwo.

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

Awurade bɛbɔ wo ho ban afi ɔsɛe nyinaa ho, ɔbɛhwɛ wo nkwa so;

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

Awurade bɛhwɛ wʼadifi ne wo fieba so mprempren ne daa.
