Psalms 91

1 Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;

Mũndũ ũrĩa ũikaraga agitĩirwo nĩ Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno arĩhurũkaga kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩa Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.

2 Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.

Ngũkiuga ũhoro wa Jehova atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe rĩũrĩro rĩakwa na kĩirigo gĩakwa kĩrĩ hinya, nĩwe Ngai wakwa, ũrĩa ndĩĩhokete.”

3 He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.

Ti-itherũ nĩegũgũteithũra gĩkerenge-inĩ kĩa mũtegi, o na kuuma mũrimũ-inĩ ũrĩa mũũru wa kũũraga.

4 You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.

Arĩkũhumbagĩra na njoya ciake, na rungu rwa mathagu make nĩho ũrĩĩgitagia; wĩhokeku wake nĩũgatuĩka ngo yaku na kĩĩhitho gĩaku.

5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,

Ndũrĩĩtigagĩra imakania cia ũtukũ, kana mũguĩ ũrĩa ũthĩrĩrĩkaga mũthenya,

6 Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.

o na kana mũrimũ ũrĩa ũceemaga nduma-inĩ, kana mũthiro ũrĩa ũniinanaga mũthenya gatagatĩ.

7 You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.

Andũ ngiri no magũe mwena waku, nao ngiri ikũmi magũe guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo, no ndũngĩkuhĩrĩrio nĩguo.

8 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.

Wee no kwĩrorera ũkerorera na maitho maku wĩonere iherithia rĩa andũ arĩa aaganu.

9 Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;

Ũngĩtua Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno gĩikaro gĩaku, o we Jehova, ũrĩa arĩ we rĩũrĩro rĩakwa,

10 No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.

hĩndĩ ĩyo gũtirĩ ũũru ũgaagũkorerera, gũtirĩ mwanangĩko ũgaakuhĩrĩria hema yaku.

11 For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.

Nĩgũkorwo nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku, makũgitagĩre mĩthiĩre-inĩ yaku yothe;

12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

nĩmagakuoya na igũrũ na moko mao nĩgeetha ndũkaringwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.

13 You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.

Nĩũgakinyĩrĩria mũrũũthi, o na nduĩra; ũkarangĩrĩria mũrũũthi ũrĩa mũnene, o na nyoka.

14 Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.

Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Kuona atĩ nĩanyendete, nĩngamũhatũra hatĩka-inĩ; nĩndĩrĩmũgitagĩra, nĩgũkorwo nĩamenyete rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.

15 When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.

Arĩngayagĩra, na niĩ ngamwĩtĩka; ndĩrĩkoragwo hamwe nake hĩndĩ ya thĩĩna, ndĩrĩmũteithũraga na ngamũtĩĩithia.

16 With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.

Ngũmũtũũria muoyo matukũ maingĩ nginya aiganie, na ndĩmuonagie ũhonokio wakwa.”
