Psalms 68
1 To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.
Thaburi ya Daudi Ngai nĩakĩarahũke, ahurunje thũ ciake; nao arĩa mamũthũire nĩmoore mehere mbere yake.
2 As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
O ta ũrĩa ndogo yũmbũragwo nĩ rũhuho-rĩ, ũromombũra; o ta ũrĩa mũhũra ũringũkagio nĩ mwaki-rĩ, andũ arĩa aaganu marothira marĩ mbere ya Ngai.
3 But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.
No rĩrĩ, arĩa athingu marocanjamũka na makene marĩ mbere ya Ngai; marorũũhia nĩ gũkena.
4 Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.
Inĩrai Ngai, mũine mũgooce rĩĩtwa rĩake, kumiai ũcio ũhaicaga matu ta mbarathi, rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩ Jehova; gĩcanjamũkei mũrĩ mbere yake.
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
Ngai ũrĩa ũikaraga gĩikaro gĩake gĩtheru-rĩ, nĩwe ithe wa ciana cia ngoriai, na mũgitĩri wa atumia a ndigwa.
6 God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].
Ngai nĩatũmaga arĩa maikaraga marĩ oiki magĩe na mĩciĩ, arĩa ohe amohorithagia na akamoimagaria; no andũ arĩa aremi matũũraga bũrũri mũũmũ.
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness (Selah)
Wee Ngai rĩrĩa woimagarire ũrĩ mbere ya andũ aku, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa watuĩkanĩirie rũngʼũrĩ-inĩ-rĩ,
8 The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
thĩ nĩyathingithire, narĩo igũrũ rĩkiuria mbura, nĩ ũndũ wa gũũka kwa Ngai, o Ũcio Ngai wa Sinai, na nĩ ũndũ wa gũũka kwa Ngai, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
9 Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
Wee Ngai-rĩ, nĩwoiririe mbura nyingĩ, ũkĩnyootora bũrũri ũcio wa igai rĩaku ũrĩa wangʼarĩte.
10 Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!
Andũ aku magĩtũũra kuo, na kuumana na ũingĩ wa indo ciaku, Wee Ngai-rĩ, ũgĩtanahĩra athĩĩni acio.
11 The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.
Mwathani nĩaheanire ũhoro, nao arĩa maawanĩrĩire maarĩ gĩkundi kĩnene:
12 Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
“Athamaki na mbũtũ cia ita moraga na ihenya; nakuo kambĩ-inĩ andũ magayanaga indo cia ndaho.
13 Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
O na rĩrĩa mũkomete hakuhĩ na mwaki wa gĩikaro kĩa nja, mũhaana o ta mathagu ma ndutura magemetio na betha, nacio njoya ciayo ikagemio na thahabu ĩkũhenia.”
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
Rĩrĩa Mwene-Hinya-Wothe aahurunjire athamaki bũrũri-inĩ-rĩ, kwahaanaga o ta rĩrĩa tharunji ĩgwĩte kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Zalimoni.
15 [As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.
Ĩ irĩma cia Bashani ti irĩma irĩ riiri; irĩma cia Bashani irĩ tũcũmbĩrĩ tũingĩ.
16 Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.
Inyuĩ irĩma ici irĩ tũcũmbĩrĩ tũingĩ-rĩ, mũrarora na ũiru nĩkĩ, kĩrĩma kĩrĩa Ngai athuurĩte gĩtuĩke gĩikaro gĩake, o kũrĩa Jehova we mwene egũtũũra nginya tene?
17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
Ngaari cia Ngai cia ita nĩ makũmi ma ngiri, na ngiri cia ngiri; Mwathani nĩokĩte arĩ gatagatĩ ga cio oimĩte Kĩrĩma gĩa Sinai, agatoonya handũ hake haamũre.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
Rĩrĩa wambatire igũrũ, nĩwatongoririe arĩa maatahĩtwo mũtongoro-inĩ waku; nĩwamũkĩrire iheo kuuma kũrĩ andũ, o na ũgĩciamũkĩra kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa aremi, nĩgeetha Wee, Jehova Ngai, ũtũũre kuo.
19 Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
Goocai Mwathani, o we Mũrungu Mũhonokia witũ, o we ũkuuaga mĩrigo iitũ mũthenya o mũthenya.
20 Our God is the God of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.
Ngai witũ nĩ Mũrungu ũhonokanagia; Mwathani Jehova nĩwe rĩũrĩro rĩa kuuma gĩkuũ-inĩ.
21 Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
Ti-itherũ Ngai nĩakamemenda ciongo cia thũ ciake, amemende ruototia rwa arĩa mathiiaga na mbere kwĩhia.
22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;
Mwathani ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngaruta thũ cianyu kuuma Bashani; ndĩcirute iria-inĩ kũrĩa kũriku,
23 That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.
nĩgeetha mũtobokie makinya manyu thakame-inĩ ya thũ cianyu, o nacio nĩmĩ cia ngui cianyu igĩe na igai rĩacio.”
24 They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
Wee Ngai-rĩ, mũtongoro waku nĩwonekete, o mũtongoro wa Mũrungu wakwa na Mũthamaki agĩtoonya handũ-harĩa-haamũre.
25 The singers went before, the players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.
Aini a nyĩmbo nĩo matongoretie, makarũmĩrĩrwo nĩ ahũũri inanda; hamwe nao nĩ airĩtu arĩa marahũũra tũhembe.
26 In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, — [ye] from the fountain of Israel.
Goocai Ngai, kĩũngano-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩnene; mũgooce Jehova kĩũngano-inĩ gĩa Isiraeli.
27 There is little Benjamin, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
Mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa mũnini wa Benjamini nĩguo ũcio ũmatongoretie, kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene kĩa athamaki a Juda kĩrĩ ho, na makarũmĩrĩrwo nĩ athamaki a Zebuluni na a Nafitali.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
Wee Ngai-rĩ, onania ũhoti waku; tuonie hinya waku, Wee Ngai, ta ũrĩa waneka.
29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
Tondũ wa hekarũ yaku ĩrĩa ĩrĩ kũu Jerusalemu-rĩ, athamaki nĩmagakũrehagĩra iheo.
30 Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.
Rũithia nyamũ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ ithanjĩ-inĩ, ũkĩrũithie rũũru rwa ndegwa rũrĩa rũrĩ thĩinĩ wa tũcaũ twa ndũrĩrĩ. Ĩkwĩnyiihĩrie, na ĩkũrehere icunjĩ cia betha. Hurunja ndũrĩrĩ iria ikenagĩra mbaara.
31 Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.
Abarũthi nĩmagooka moimĩte bũrũri wa Misiri; naguo bũrũri wa Kushi nĩũkenyiihĩria Ngai.
32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of the Lord, (Selah)
Inĩrai Ngai, inyuĩ mothamaki ma thĩ, inai mũgooce Mwathani,
33 Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the heavens which are of old: lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
ũcio ũthiiaga ahaicĩte matu macio ma igũrũ ma tene, ũcio ũrurumaga na mũgambo mũnene.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
Anĩrĩrai hinya wa Ngai, we ũrĩa ũnene wake arĩ guo ũrũgamĩrĩire Isiraeli, o ũcio ũhoti wake ũrĩ kũu matu-inĩ.
35 Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, — the God of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!
Wee Ngai-rĩ, ũrĩ wa gwĩtigĩrwo, ũrĩ handũ hau haku haamũre; Mũrungu wa Isiraeli nĩaheaga andũ ake ũhoti o na hinya. Ngai arogoocwo!
