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 Degrees. I lifted up mine eyes to the mountains, whence my help shall come.

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

My help [shall come] from the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

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

Let not your foot be moved; and let not your keeper slumber.

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

Behold, he that keeps Israel shall not slumber nor sleep.

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

The Lord shall keep you: the Lord is your shelter upon your right hand.

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

The sun shall not burn you by day, neither the moon by night.

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

May the Lord preserve you from all evil: the Lord shall keep your soul.

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

The Lord shall keep your coming in, and your going out, from henceforth and even for ever.
