< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to Your name be the glory, because of Your loving devotion, because of Your faithfulness.
Ti ithuĩ, Wee Jehova, ti ithuĩ twagĩrĩire kũgoocwo, no goocithia rĩĩtwa rĩaku, tondũ wa wendo na wĩhokeku waku.
2 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga ndũrĩrĩ ciũrie atĩrĩ, “Ngai wao akĩrĩ ha?”
3 Our God is in heaven; He does as He pleases.
Ngai witũ arĩ o igũrũ; we ekaga o ũrĩa endaga.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
No mĩhianano yao nĩ betha na thahabu, wĩra ũthondeketwo na moko ma andũ.
5 They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see;
Nĩĩrĩ tũnua, no ndĩaragia, nĩĩrĩ maitho, no ndĩonaga;
6 they have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell;
nĩĩrĩ matũ, no ndĩiguaga, nĩĩrĩ na maniũrũ, no ndĩiguaga mũnungo;
7 they have hands, but cannot feel; they have feet, but cannot walk; they cannot even clear their throats.
nĩĩrĩ moko, no ndĩngĩhambata kĩndũ, nĩĩrĩ magũrũ, no ndĩngĩĩtwara; o na nĩĩrĩ mĩmero, no ndĩngĩnyuria.
8 Those who make them become like them, as do all who trust in them.
Andũ arĩa mamĩthondekaga makaahaana o tayo, na noguo arĩa othe mamĩĩhokaga makaahaana.
9 O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
Wee nyũmba ya Isiraeli, wĩhokage Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao o na ngo yao.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
Wee nyũmba ya Harũni, wĩhokage Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao o na ngo yao.
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
Inyuĩ arĩa mũmwĩtigĩrĩte, mwĩhokagei Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao na ngo yao.
12 The LORD is mindful of us; He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron;
Jehova nĩatũririkanĩte na nĩegũtũrathima: Nĩekũrathima nyũmba ya Isiraeli, nĩekũrathima nyũmba ya Harũni,
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD— small and great alike.
nĩekũrathima arĩa metigĩrĩte Jehova, anini na anene o ũndũ ũmwe.
14 May the LORD give you increase, both you and your children.
Jehova arotũma mũingĩhe, inyuĩ na ciana cianyu.
15 May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Mũrorathimwo nĩ Jehova, Mũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ.
16 The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth He has given to mankind.
Kũu igũrũ mũno nĩ kwa Jehova, no thĩ nĩamĩheanĩte kũrĩ andũ.
17 It is not the dead who praise the LORD, nor any who descend into silence.
Andũ arĩa akuũ matigoocaga Jehova, acio maikũrũkaga kũu ũkiri-inĩ;
18 But it is we who will bless the LORD, both now and forevermore. Hallelujah!
nĩ ithuĩ tũrĩkumagia Jehova, kuuma rĩu nginya tene na tene. Goocai Jehova.
