1Ndichasimudzira meso angu kumakomo; Kubatsirwa kwangu kuchabvepiko?
1{A Song of degrees.} I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?
2Kubatsirwa kwangu kunobva kuna Jehovha, Wakaita kudenga napasi.
2My help [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the 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 henceforth and for evermore.
