1Ndichasimudzira meso angu kumakomo; Kubatsirwa kwangu kuchabvepiko?
1A Song of Ascents. I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: From whence shall my help come?
2Kubatsirwa kwangu kunobva kuna Jehovha, Wakaita kudenga napasi.
2My help [cometh] from Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.
3Haangatenderi rutsoka rwako kuti rutedzemuke; Muchengeti wako haangakotsiri.
3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4Tarirai, muchengeti waIsiraeri Haangakotsiri kana kuvata.
4Behold, he that keepeth Israel Will neither slumber nor sleep.
5Jehovha muchengeti wako; Jehovha mumvuri wako paruoko rwako rworudyi.
5Jehovah is thy keeper: Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6Zuva haringakubayi masikati, Nomwedzi usiku.
6The sun shall not smite thee by day, Nor the moon by night.
7Jehovha achakuchengeta pazvakaipa zvose; Achachengeta mweya wako.
7Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; He will keep thy soul.
8Jehovha achakuchengeta pakubuda kwako napakupinda kwako, Kubva panguva ino kusvikira pakusingaperi.
8Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in From this time forth and for evermore.
