< Psalms 9 >
1 For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning the secrets of the Son. I will give thanks to you, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will recount all your wonderful works.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, nĩngũkũgooca na ngoro yakwa yothe; nĩngũgana maũndũ maku mothe ma magegania marĩa wĩkĩte.
2 I will be glad and exult in you: I will sing to your name, O you Most High.
Nĩngũcanjamũka na ngene nĩ ũndũ waku. Nĩngũina rwĩmbo ngooce rĩĩtwa rĩaku, Wee Ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.
3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall be feeble and perish at your presence.
Thũ ciakwa icookaga na thuutha, ikahĩngwo igathira irĩ mbere yaku.
4 For you have maintained my cause and my right; you sat on the throne, that judge righteousness.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩũtiirĩrĩire kĩhooto gĩakwa na ciira wakwa; nĩũikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene, na ũgatua ciira na ũthingu.
5 You have rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished; you have blotted out their name for ever, even for ever and ever.
Nĩũrũithĩtie ndũrĩrĩ na ũkaniina andũ arĩa aaganu; namo marĩĩtwa mao ũkamatharia tene na tene.
6 The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and you have destroyed cities: their memorial has been destroyed with a noise,
Thũ nĩũcikinyĩirie mwanangĩko ũtathiraga, nĩwanangĩte matũũra macio manene; o na kũririkanwo kwao nĩgũthirĩte.
7 but the Lord endures for ever: he has prepared his throne for judgement.
Jehova athamakaga nginya tene; nĩahaandĩte gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene nĩguo atuanĩre ciira.
8 And he will judge the world in righteousness, he will judge the nations in uprightness.
Nĩagatuĩra andũ a thĩ ciira na kĩhooto; nĩagathamakĩra ndũrĩrĩ o ta ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire.
9 The Lord also is become a refuge for the poor, a seasonable help, in affliction.
Jehova nĩwe rĩũrĩro rĩa arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie, kĩĩhitho kĩrĩ hinya hĩndĩ ya mathĩĩna.
10 And let them that know your name hope in you: for you, O Lord, have not failed them that diligently seek you.
Arĩa mooĩ rĩĩtwa rĩaku nĩmarĩkwĩhokaga, nĩgũkorwo Jehova ndũrĩ watiganĩria arĩa makũrongoragia.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Sion: declare his dealings amongst the nations.
Inĩrai Jehova nyĩmbo mũmũgooce, o ũcio ũikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kũu Zayuni; umbũrĩrai andũ a ndũrĩrĩ maũndũ marĩa ekĩte.
12 For he remembered them, [in] making inquisition for blood: he has not forgotten the supplication of the poor.
Nĩgũkorwo ũcio ũrĩhanagĩria thakame nĩamaririkanaga; kĩrĩro kĩa andũ arĩa ahinyĩrĩrĩku ndakariganĩrwo nĩkĩo.
13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; look upon my affliction [which I suffer] of mine enemies, you that lift me up from the gates of death:
Wee Jehova, ta rora wone ũrĩa thũ ciakwa iranyariira! Njiguĩra tha, ũnjoe na igũrũ, ũndute kuuma ihingo-inĩ cia gĩkuũ,
14 that I may declare all your praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion: I will exult in your salvation.
nĩguo nyumbũre ũgooci waku ndĩ kũu ihingo-inĩ cia Mwarĩ wa Zayuni, na ndĩ kũu ngenagĩre ũhonokio waku.
15 The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned: in the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.
Ndũrĩrĩ nĩigwĩte o irima rĩrĩa cienjete; magũrũ maacio nĩmanyiitĩtwo nĩ wabu o ũcio ihithĩte wa gũtegana.
16 The Lord is known as executing judgements: the sinner is taken in the works of his hands. (A song of, Pause)
Jehova nĩemenyithanĩtie na ũndũ wa gũtuanĩra ciira na kĩhooto gĩake; andũ arĩa aaganu nĩmetegete na wĩra wa moko mao ene.
17 Let sinners be driven away into Hades, [even] all the nations that forget God. (Sheol )
Andũ arĩa aaganu macookaga o mbĩrĩra-inĩ, ĩĩ-ni, ndũrĩrĩ iria ciothe iriganagĩrwo nĩ Ngai. (Sheol )
18 For the poor shall not be forgotten for ever: the patience of the needy ones shall not perish for ever.
No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa abatari matigũtũũra mariganĩire, na kana mwĩhoko wa arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie ũthire nginya tene.
19 Arise, O Lord, let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged before you.
Wee Jehova, arahũka, Ndũkareke mũndũ agĩe na ũhootani; reke ndũrĩrĩ ituĩrwo ciira irĩ mbere yaku.
20 Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: let the heathen know that they are men. (Pause)
Wee Jehova, maiguithie guoya, ũreke ndũrĩrĩ imenye atĩ cio no andũ.
