Psalms 41
1 For the end, a Psalm of David. Blessed [is the man] who thinks, on the poor and needy: the Lord shall deliver him in an evil day.
Thaburi ya Daudi Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũrũmbũyagia andũ arĩa matarĩ hinya; ũcio-rĩ, Jehova nĩamũhatũraga hĩndĩ ya mathĩĩna.
2 May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy.
Jehova nĩarĩmũgitagĩra na amũtũũragie muoyo; nĩarĩmũrathimaga bũrũri-inĩ, na ndakamũrekereria kũrĩ merirĩria ma thũ ciake.
3 May the Lord help him upon the bed of his pain; you have made all his bed in his sickness.
Jehova nĩarĩmũmenyagĩrĩra arĩ ũrĩrĩ-inĩ arĩ mũrũaru, na acooke amũhonie arĩ o hau ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wake.
4 I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against you.
Ndoigire atĩrĩ, “Wee Jehova, njiguĩra tha; honia, nĩgũkorwo Wee nĩwe njĩhĩirie.”
5 Mine enemies have spoken evil against me, [saying], When shall he die, and his name perish?
Thũ ciakwa ciaragia ũhoro wakwa na rũmena ikooria atĩrĩ, “Agakua rĩ, rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩthire?”
6 And if he came to see [me], his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũndũ ooka kũnyona, aaheaga ũhoro wa maheeni, o rĩrĩa ngoro yake ĩrahũnga ndeto cia kũnjambia; agacooka agathiĩ gũcimemeerekia kũndũ guothe.
7 All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt.
Thũ ciakwa ciothe iheehanagĩra nĩguo iinjũkĩrĩre; injiiragĩrĩra maũndũ mooru mũno, ikoiga atĩrĩ,
8 They denounced a wicked word against me, [saying], Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again?
“Mũrimũ mũũru nĩũmũnyiitĩte; ndarĩ hĩndĩ agokĩra hau akomete.”
9 For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up [his] heel against me.
O na mũrata wakwa wa hakuhĩ, ũrĩa ndĩrehokete, o ũrĩa tũrĩĩanagĩra irio nake nĩangarũrũkĩte.
10 But you, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them.
No rĩrĩ, Wee Jehova, njiguĩra tha; njarahũra, nĩguo ndĩĩrĩhĩrie harĩo.
11 By this I know that you have delighted in me, because mine enemy shall not rejoice over me.
Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ nĩũkenetio nĩ niĩ, nĩgũkorwo thũ yakwa ndĩndooretie.
12 But you did help me because of [mine] innocence, and have established me before you for ever.
We nĩũũnyiitĩrĩire nĩ ũndũ wa wagĩrĩru wakwa, na ũkanjiga harĩwe nginya tene.
13 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. So be it, so be it.
Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, arogoocwo, kuuma tene wa tene nginya tene na tene. Ameni, na ningĩ Ameni.
