< Psalms 135 >
1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD. Give praise, O servants of the LORD,
Goocai Jehova. Goocai rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova; inyuĩ ndungata cia Jehova-rĩ, mũgoocei,
2 who stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
inyuĩ mũtungataga thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova, o inyuĩ mũrũgamaga nja-inĩ cia nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
3 Hallelujah, for the LORD is good; sing praises to His name, for it is lovely.
Goocai Jehova, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩ mwega; inai mũgooce rĩĩtwa rĩake, nĩgũkorwo nĩ rĩega.
4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob as His own, Israel as His treasured possession.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩethuurĩire Jakubu atuĩke wake, agathuura Isiraeli atuĩke igai rĩake kĩũmbe.
5 For I know that the LORD is great; our Lord is above all gods.
Niĩ nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Jehova nĩ mũnene, atĩ Mwathani witũ nĩ mũnene gũkĩra ngai ciothe.
6 The LORD does all that pleases Him in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and in all their depths.
Jehova ekaga ũrĩa wothe ekwenda, kũu igũrũ na gũkũ thĩ, o na kũu iria-inĩ o na kũrĩa guothe kũriku mũno.
7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He generates the lightning with the rain and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.
Nĩwe ũtũmaga matu mambate kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ; nĩwe ũtũmaga kũgĩe heni irehanĩte na mbura, na akarehe rũhuho kuuma mĩthithũ-inĩ yake.
8 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, of both man and beast.
Nĩwe waringire marigithathi ma Misiri, marigithathi ma andũ na ma nyamũ.
9 He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
Wee Misiri, nĩwe watũmire thĩinĩ waku kũringwo ciama na morirũ, agĩũkĩrĩra Firaũni na ndungata ciake ciothe.
10 He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:
Nĩwe waringire ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ na akĩũraga athamaki maarĩ hinya:
11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
nĩo Sihoni mũthamaki wa Aamori, na Ogu mũthamaki wa Bashani, o na athamaki othe a Kaanani;
12 He gave their land as an inheritance, as a heritage to His people Israel.
akĩheana bũrũri wao ũtuĩke igai, ũtuĩke igai kũrĩ andũ ake a Isiraeli.
13 Your name, O LORD, endures forever, Your renown, O LORD, through all generations.
Rĩĩtwa rĩaku, Wee Jehova, rĩtũũraga nginya tene, ngumo yaku, Wee Jehova, ĩgakinyĩra njiarwa na njiarwa.
14 For the LORD will vindicate His people and will have compassion on His servants.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩagaciirĩrĩra andũ ake, na aiguĩre ndungata ciake tha.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
Mĩhianano ya ndũrĩrĩ ĩthondeketwo na betha na thahabu, o wĩra wa moko ma andũ.
16 They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see;
Nĩĩrĩ tũnua, no ndĩaragia, nĩĩrĩ maitho, no ndĩonaga;
17 they have ears, but cannot hear; nor is there breath in their mouths.
nĩĩrĩ matũ, no ndĩiguaga, o na ndĩrĩ mĩhũmũ tũnua-inĩ twayo.
18 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.
19 O house of Israel, bless the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless the LORD;
Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Isiraeli, goocai Jehova; Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Harũni, goocai Jehova;
20 O house of Levi, bless the LORD; you who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!
Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Lawi, goocai Jehova; inyuĩ arĩa mũmwĩtigĩrĩte, goocai Jehova.
21 Blessed be the LORD from Zion— He who dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
Jehova arogoocwo kuuma Zayuni, o we ũtũũraga kũu Jerusalemu. Goocai Jehova.
