Psalms 58
1 Do ye indeed speak righteousness in silence? Do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
Thaburi ya Daudi Inyuĩ aathani aya-rĩ, ti-itherũ nĩmwaragia maũndũ ma kĩhooto? Nĩmũtuagĩra andũ ciira ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire na kĩhooto?
2 No! In heart ye work wickedness. Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Aca, ngoro-inĩ cianyu mũthugundaga maũndũ matarĩ ma kĩhooto, na moko manyu mageeka maũndũ ma kũruta haaro gũkũ thĩ.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb. They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
O kuuma gũciarwo andũ arĩa aaganu nĩmahĩtagia njĩra; matũũraga marĩ imaramari kuuma gũciarwo, na maaragia maheeni.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent, like the deaf adder that stops her ear,
Ũrũrũ wao nĩ ta ũrũrũ wa nyoka, ũhaana ta thumu wa nduĩra ĩthingĩte matũ mayo,
5 which hearkens not to the voice of charmers, charming ever so wisely.
ĩrĩa ĩtangĩigua rwĩmbo rwa mũmĩthuuthĩri, o na angĩkorwo aramĩthuuthĩra arĩ na ũũgĩ mũnene atĩa.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
Wee Ngai, unanga magego marĩa marĩ tũnua twao; Wee Jehova, munya mĩthangiri ya mĩrũũthi ĩyo!
7 Let them melt away as water that runs with haste. When he aims his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off,
Nĩmabuĩrie o ta maaĩ marĩa mathereraga makabuĩria; rĩrĩa magereka ũta-rĩ, mĩguĩ yao nĩĩkoragwo ĩrĩ mĩtuuhu.
8 as a snail which melts and passes away, as the untimely birth of a woman, that has not seen the sun.
Marotuĩka ta ndinoho ĩrĩa ĩtwekaga o ĩgĩthiiaga, matuĩke ta kĩhuno kĩrĩa gĩtoonaga riũa.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
Andũ arĩa aaganu makeeherio narua, gũkĩra ũrĩa nyũngũ cianyu ingĩhiũhio nĩ mwaki wa mĩigua, ĩrĩ mĩigũ kana ĩrĩ mĩũmũ.
10 A righteous man shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
Andũ arĩa athingu nĩmagakena maarĩhĩrio, rĩrĩa magathambia nyarĩrĩ ciao thakame-inĩ ya arĩa aaganu.
11 so that men shall say, Truly there is a reward for the righteous man. Truly there is a God who judges in the earth.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ nĩmakoiga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩ kũrĩ na irĩhi rĩa arĩa athingu; ti-itherũ nĩ kũrĩ Ngai ũrĩa ũtuagĩra andũ a thĩ ciira.”
