< Psalms 138 >
1 Of David. I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, nĩngũkũgooca na ngoro yakwa yothe; ngũkũinĩra ngũgooce ngai iria ingĩ irĩ o ho.
2 I bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness; You have exalted Your name and Your word above all else.
Ngũinamĩrĩra njerekeire hekarũ-inĩ yaku ĩrĩa nyamũre, ngooce rĩĩtwa rĩaku, nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku na wĩhokeku waku, nĩgũkorwo nĩũtũũgĩrĩtie rĩĩtwa rĩaku, na ũgatũũgĩria kiugo gĩaku makĩria ya maũndũ marĩa mangĩ mothe.
3 On the day I called, You answered me; You emboldened me and strengthened my soul.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndagwĩtire, nĩwanjĩtĩkire; wanyũmĩrĩirie na ũkĩnjĩkĩra hinya ngoro.
4 All the kings of the earth will give You thanks, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth.
Wee Jehova-rĩ, athamaki othe a thĩ nĩmakũgoocage, rĩrĩa maigua ciugo cia kanua gaku.
5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.
Nĩmaganage ũhoro wa njĩra cia Jehova, nĩgũkorwo riiri wa Jehova nĩ mũnene.
6 Though the LORD is on high, He attends to the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar.
O na gũtũĩka Jehova arĩ igũrũ-rĩ, nĩaroraga andũ arĩa enyiihia, no arĩa etĩĩi akamenya ũhoro wao arĩ o kũraya.
7 If I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve me from the anger of my foes; You extend Your hand, and Your right hand saves me.
O na ingĩgerera mathĩĩna-inĩ, Wee nĩũmenyagĩrĩra muoyo wakwa; ũtambũrũkagia guoko gwaku ũgookĩrĩra marakara ma thũ ciakwa, ũkaahonokia na guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo.
8 The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever— do not abandon the works of Your hands.
Jehova nĩakahingia muoroto wake harĩ niĩ; wendo waku, Wee Jehova, nĩ wa tene na tene; nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndũgatiganĩrie wĩra wa moko maku.
