< Psalms 63 >

1 O God, thou are my God. I will earnestly seek thee. My soul thirsts for thee, my flesh longs for thee, in a dry and weary land, where is no water.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Ngai, nĩwe Mũrungu wakwa, Wee-rĩ, nĩwe nongoragia na kĩyo; ngoro yakwa nĩwe ĩnyootagĩra, na mwĩrĩ wakwa nĩwe wĩriragĩria, ndĩ bũrũri-inĩ ũyũ mũũmũ na wa mĩnoga, o ũyũ ũtarĩ maaĩ.
2 So I have looked upon thee in the sanctuary to see thy power and thy glory.
Nĩnguonete ũrĩ handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na ngeyonera hinya waku na riiri waku.
3 Because thy loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
Tondũ wendo waku nĩ mwega gũkĩra muoyo guo mwene-rĩ, mĩromo yakwa nĩĩrĩkũgoocaga.
4 So I will bless thee while I live. I will lift up my hands in thy name.
Ndĩrĩkũgoocaga hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe ngũtũũra muoyo, ngoocage rĩĩtwa rĩaku nyambararĩtie moko makwa.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness. And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips
Ngoro yakwa ĩiganĩire ta ĩrĩĩte irio iria njega mũno; nako kanua gakwa nĩkarĩkũgoocaga, mĩromo yakwa ĩgakũinĩra.
6 when I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night-watches.
Ngũririkanaga ndĩ ũrĩrĩ; ndĩciiragia ũhoro waku ũtukũ wothe.
7 For thou have been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings I will rejoice.
Tondũ Wee nĩwe ũteithio wakwa-rĩ, nyinagĩra kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩa mathagu maku.
8 My soul follows close after thee. Thy right hand upholds me.
Ngoro yakwa nĩĩnyiitĩrĩire harĩwe; guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo gũkaanyiitĩrĩra.
9 But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
Andũ arĩa macaragia muoyo wakwa nĩguo maũniine nĩmakanangwo; magaatoonyerera na thĩ nginya kũrĩa kũriku mũno.
10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword. They shall be a portion for foxes.
Makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora matuĩke irio cia mbwe.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him shall glory, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
No rĩrĩ, mũthamaki nĩagakena nĩ ũndũ wa Ngai; andũ arĩa othe mehĩtaga makĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai nĩmakamũgooca, natuo tũnua twa arĩa maaragia maheeni nĩtũgaakirio.
