Psalms 58
1 To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?
Thaburi ya Daudi Inyuĩ aathani aya-rĩ, ti-itherũ nĩmwaragia maũndũ ma kĩhooto? Nĩmũtuagĩra andũ ciira ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire na kĩhooto?
2 The purposes of your hearts are evil; your hands are full of cruel doings on the earth.
Aca, ngoro-inĩ cianyu mũthugundaga maũndũ matarĩ ma kĩhooto, na moko manyu mageeka maũndũ ma kũruta haaro gũkũ thĩ.
3 The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.
O kuuma gũciarwo andũ arĩa aaganu nĩmahĩtagia njĩra; matũũraga marĩ imaramari kuuma gũciarwo, na maaragia maheeni.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut;
Ũrũrũ wao nĩ ta ũrũrũ wa nyoka, ũhaana ta thumu wa nduĩra ĩthingĩte matũ mayo,
5 Who will not be moved by the voice of the wonder-worker, however great are his powers.
ĩrĩa ĩtangĩigua rwĩmbo rwa mũmĩthuuthĩri, o na angĩkorwo aramĩthuuthĩra arĩ na ũũgĩ mũnene atĩa.
6 O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.
Wee Ngai, unanga magego marĩa marĩ tũnua twao; Wee Jehova, munya mĩthangiri ya mĩrũũthi ĩyo!
7 Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.
Nĩmabuĩrie o ta maaĩ marĩa mathereraga makabuĩria; rĩrĩa magereka ũta-rĩ, mĩguĩ yao nĩĩkoragwo ĩrĩ mĩtuuhu.
8 Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.
Marotuĩka ta ndinoho ĩrĩa ĩtwekaga o ĩgĩthiiaga, matuĩke ta kĩhuno kĩrĩa gĩtoonaga riũa.
9 Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.
Andũ arĩa aaganu makeeherio narua, gũkĩra ũrĩa nyũngũ cianyu ingĩhiũhio nĩ mwaki wa mĩigua, ĩrĩ mĩigũ kana ĩrĩ mĩũmũ.
10 The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.
Andũ arĩa athingu nĩmagakena maarĩhĩrio, rĩrĩa magathambia nyarĩrĩ ciao thakame-inĩ ya arĩa aaganu.
11 So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ nĩmakoiga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩ kũrĩ na irĩhi rĩa arĩa athingu; ti-itherũ nĩ kũrĩ Ngai ũrĩa ũtuagĩra andũ a thĩ ciira.”
