Omuwa oye omugameni gwandje
1 Otandi ligameke omeho gandje pombanda;
ekwatho otandi li mono peni?
2 Ekwatho lyandje otali zi kOmuwa,
omushiti gwegulu nogwevi.
3 Oye ite ku etha, u gwile po;
omugameni gwoye iha kotha.
4 Omusita gwaIsraeli iha kumuka
noiha kotha,
5 Omuwa ote ku tonatele;
oye eshigo negameno lyoye.
6 Etango itali ku tsu pethimbo lyomutenya
nenge omwedhi uusiku.
7 Omuwa ote ku gamene kiiponga ayihe
note ku kaleke nomwenyo.
8 Omuwa ota gamene okupita kwoye
nokugaluka kwoye,
ngashingeyi nosigo aluhe.

The Lord Will Protect His People
1 I look to the hills!
Where will I find help?
2 It will come from the Lord,
who created heaven and earth.
3 The Lord is your protector,
and he won't go to sleep
or let you stumble.
4 The protector of Israel
doesn't doze
or ever get drowsy.
5 The Lord is your protector,
there at your right side
to shade you from the sun.
6 You won't be harmed
by the sun during the day
or by the moon at night.
7 The Lord will protect you
and keep you safe
from all dangers.
8 The Lord will protect you
now and always
wherever you go.
