Psalms 66
1 For the choirmaster. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth!
Rwĩmbo rwa Thaburi Anĩrĩrai Ngai mũkenete mũrĩ mbere ya Jehova, inyuĩ andũ othe a thĩ!
2 Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious.
Inai mũrahe riiri wa rĩĩtwa rĩake; gũkumio gwake tũmai kũgĩe na riiri!
3 Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds! So great is Your power that Your enemies cower before You.
Ĩrai Ngai atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ciĩko ciaku nĩ cia magegania-ĩ! Ũhoti waku nĩ mũnene mũno nginya ũgatũma thũ ciaku ciĩhetage nĩ guoya irĩ mbere yaku.
4 All the earth bows down to You; they sing praise to You; they sing praise to Your name.”
Andũ othe a thĩ nĩwe mainamagĩrĩra; mainaga magakũgooca, mainaga makagooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
5 Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.
Ũkai muone ũrĩa Ngai ekĩte, maũndũ marĩa ekagĩra andũ matikĩrĩ ma kũmakania!
6 He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the waters on foot; there we rejoiced in Him.
Aagarũrire iria rĩgĩtuĩka thĩ nyũmũ, nao andũ makĩhĩtũkĩra kũu maaĩ-inĩ na magũrũ; ũkai, tũmũkenere.
7 He rules forever by His power; His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves.
Nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wake, egũtũũra aathanaga nginya tene, maitho make maikaraga marorete ndũrĩrĩ, nĩguo andũ arĩa aremi matikagerie kũmũũkĩrĩra.
8 Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard.
Goocai Ngai witũ, inyuĩ andũ a ndũrĩrĩ, mũgambo wake wa kũmũgooca nĩũiguĩke;
9 He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from slipping.
nĩatũtũũrĩtie muoyo na akagirĩrĩria magũrũ maitũ matirũke.
10 For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us like silver.
Nĩgũkorwo Wee Ngai nĩũtũgeretie; ũtũtheragia ta ũrĩa betha ĩtheragio na mwaki.
11 You led us into the net; You laid burdens on our backs.
Nĩwatũmire tũtwarwo njeera na ũgĩtũkuuithia mĩrigo mĩritũ.
12 You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but You brought us into abundance.
Warekire andũ matũikarĩre mĩtwe; twagĩtuĩkanirie mwaki-inĩ o na maaĩ-inĩ, no ũgĩcooka ũgĩtũrehe kũndũ kũrĩ bũthi.
13 I will enter Your house with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my vows to You—
Nĩngũũka hekarũ-inĩ yaku ndĩ na maruta ma njino, nĩguo hingie mĩĩhĩtwa yakwa harĩwe,
14 the vows that my lips promised and my mouth spoke in my distress.
mĩĩhĩtwa ĩrĩa mĩromo yakwa yeranĩire, na ngĩmĩaria na kanua gakwa, rĩrĩa ndaarĩ thĩĩna-inĩ.
15 I will offer You fatlings as burnt offerings, with the fragrant smoke of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.
Ngũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa nyamũ iria noru, na ndute iruta rĩa ndũrũme; ngũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa ndegwa na mbũri.
16 Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for me.
Ũkai mũthikĩrĩrie inyuothe arĩa mwĩtigĩrĩte Ngai; rekei ndĩmũhe ũhoro wa ũrĩa anjĩkĩire.
17 I cried out to Him with my mouth and praised Him with my tongue.
Ndamũkaĩire na kanua gakwa, ngĩmũgooca na rũrĩmĩ rwakwa.
18 If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
Korwo ndaarĩ na mehia ngoro-inĩ yakwa-rĩ, Mwathani ndangĩanjiguire;
19 But God has surely heard; He has attended to the sound of my prayer.
no ti-itherũ Ngai nĩathikĩrĩirie, na akĩigua mũgambo wakwa ngĩmũhooya.
20 Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld from me His loving devotion!
Ngai arogoocwo, o we ũtaaregire kũigua ihooya rĩakwa, o na kana akĩaga kũnyonia wendo wake!
