< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of degrees. Jehovah, remember for David all his affliction;
Thaburi ya Agendi Wee Jehova, ririkana Daudi na mathĩĩna marĩa mothe omĩrĩirie.
2 How he swore unto Jehovah, vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
Nĩehĩtire mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Jehova, akĩĩhĩta harĩ ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, akiuga ũũ:
3 I will not come into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed;
“Ndigatoonya nyũmba yakwa, kana haice ũrĩrĩ wakwa,
4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, slumber to mine eyelids,
ndikaareke maitho makwa mone toro, kana ndeke imone ciakwa icũnge,
5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob. ...
o nginya ngoonera Jehova handũ ha gũikara, ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, ndĩmuonere gĩikaro.”
6 Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
Nĩtwaiguire ũhoro tũrĩ Efiratha, na tũkĩũkora mĩgũnda-inĩ ya Kiriathu Jearimu.
7 Let us go into his habitations, let us worship at his footstool.
Tũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩi gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake; nĩtũinamĩrĩre tũmũhooe tũrĩ gaturwa-inĩ ka makinya make;
8 Arise, Jehovah, into thy rest, thou and the ark of thy strength.
arahũka, Wee Jehova, ũũke kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩaku, wee na ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩa hinya waku.
9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, and let thy saints shout for joy.
Athĩnjĩri aku marohumbwo na ũthingu; andũ aku aamũre nĩmakĩine nĩ gũkena.”
10 For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thine anointed.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ndungata yaku Daudi, ndũkarega ũrĩa we ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
11 Jehovah hath sworn [in] truth unto David; he will not turn from it: Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne;
Jehova nĩehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi, mwĩhĩtwa atangĩĩricũkwo, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Nĩngaikarĩria ũmwe wa rũciaro rwaku Gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene,
12 If thy children keep my covenant, and my testimonies which I will teach them, their children also for evermore shall sit upon thy throne.
ariũ aku mangĩkaamenyerera kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa na mawatho makwa marĩa ndĩrĩmarutaga, hĩndĩ ĩyo ariũ ao nĩmagaikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene nginya tene na tene.”
13 For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his dwelling:
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩathuurĩte Zayuni, akerirĩria gũtuĩke gĩikaro gĩake, akoiga atĩrĩ:
14 This is my rest for ever; here will I dwell, for I have desired it.
“Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩhurũko gĩakwa nginya tene na tene; gũkũ nĩkuo ngũtũũra njikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, nĩgũkorwo nĩ niĩ ndĩyendeire;
15 I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her needy ones with bread;
nĩngakũrathima na ũmaathi mũingĩ mũno; athĩĩni akuo ndĩmahũũnie na irio.
16 And I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
Nĩngahumba athĩnjĩri-Ngai akuo ũhonokio, na andũ akuo arĩa aamũre matũũre mainaga nĩ gũkena.
17 There will I cause the horn of David to bud forth; I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
“Kũu nĩkuo ngaatũma rũhĩa rwa Daudi rũthundũke na njigĩre ũrĩa njitĩrĩirie maguta tawa ũgwakana.
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Thũ ciake nĩngacihumba thoni, no thũmbĩ ya ũnene ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mũtwe wake nĩĩgakenga na riiri.”
