Psalms 25
1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. To thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, ngoro yakwa ndĩmĩroretie na igũrũ kũrĩ we;
2 In thee, O my God, I put my trust; let me not be ashamed.
Wee Ngai wakwa, nowe ndĩhokete. Ndũkareke njonorithio, o na kana ũreke thũ ciakwa ingenerere.
3 Neither let my enemies laugh at me: for none of them that wait on thee shall be confounded.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkwĩhokete ũgaaconorithio o na rĩ, no arĩa mekaga andũ ũũru hatarĩ gĩtũmi-rĩ, acio nĩo magaconorithio.
4 Let all them be confounded that act unjust things without cause. Shew, O Lord, thy ways to me, and teach me thy paths.
Wee Jehova, nyonia mĩthiĩre yaku, ũũmenyithie njĩra ciaku;
5 Direct me in thy truth, and teach me; for thou art God my Saviour; and on thee have I waited all the day long.
ndongoria ũhoro-inĩ waku wa ma na ũndutage, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa ũũhonokagia, na nĩwe kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro gĩakwa mũthenya wothe.
6 Remember, O Lord, thy bowels of compassion; and thy mercies that are from the beginning of the world.
Jehova, ririkana tha ciaku nyingĩ o na wendo waku, nĩgũkorwo nĩ cia kuuma o tene.
7 The sins of my youth and my ignorances do not remember. According to thy mercy remember thou me: for thy goodness’ sake, O Lord.
Ndũkaririkane mehia ma ũnini wakwa, o na kana mehia makwa ma ũremi; ndirikana kũringana na wendani waku, nĩ ũndũ wa wega waku, Wee Jehova.
8 The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way.
Jehova nĩ mwega na nĩ mũrũngĩrĩru; nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa ehia nĩarĩmonagĩrĩria njĩra ciake.
9 He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.
Atongoragia andũ arĩa menyiihagia na njĩra ĩrĩa yagĩrĩire, na akamarutaga njĩra yake.
10 All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth, to them that seek after his covenant and his testimonies.
Njĩra ciothe cia Jehova nĩ cia wendani na wĩhokeku, harĩ arĩa mamenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake.
11 For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt pardon my sin: for it is great.
Wee Jehova, nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku-rĩ, ndekera mehia makwa, o na gũtuĩka nĩ manene.
12 Who is the man that feareth the Lord? He hath appointed him a law in the way he hath chosen.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mwĩtigĩri Jehova nũũ? Mũndũ ũcio nĩarĩmuonagĩrĩria njĩra ĩrĩa aagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũgera.
13 His soul shall dwell in good things: and his seed shall inherit the land.
Mũndũ ũcio egũtũũra matukũ make agaacĩire, nacio njiaro ciake nĩikaagaya bũrũri.
14 The Lord is a firmament to them that fear him: and his covenant shall be made manifest to them.
Jehova nĩehokaga andũ arĩa mamwĩtigagĩra; nĩo amenyithagia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake.
15 My eyes are ever towards the Lord: for he shall pluck my feet out of the snare.
Maitho makwa maikaraga hĩndĩ ciothe macũthĩrĩirie Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nowe wiki ũngĩteithũkithia magũrũ makwa mũtego-inĩ.
16 Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me; for I am alone and poor.
Hũgũkĩra, ũnyonie ũtugi waku, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ o nyiki na ndĩ mũnyamarĩku.
17 The troubles of my heart are multiplied: deliver me from my necessities.
Mathĩĩna ma ngoro yakwa nĩmaingĩhĩte; niinĩra ruo rũrĩa ndĩ naruo.
18 See my abjection and my labour; and forgive me all my sins.
Rora mĩnyamaro yakwa o na gũtangĩka gwakwa, ũkĩndekere mehia makwa mothe.
19 Consider my enemies for they are multiplied, and have hated me with an unjust hatred.
Rora thũ ciakwa wone ũrĩa cingĩhĩte, nacio iithũire na rũthũũro rũtarĩ tha!
20 Keep thou my soul, and deliver me: I shall not be ashamed, for I have hoped in thee.
Menyagĩrĩra muoyo wakwa na ũũthare; ndũkareke njonorithio, nĩgũkorwo nĩ harĩwe njũragĩra.
21 The innocent and the upright have adhered to me: because I have waited on thee.
Wĩkindĩru wa ngoro na ũrũngĩrĩru irongitagĩra, tondũ nĩwe njĩrĩgagĩrĩra.
22 Deliver Israel, O God, from all his tribulations.
Wee Ngai, gĩkũũre andũ a Isiraeli, moime mathĩĩna-inĩ mao mothe!
