Psalms 69
1 Unto the end, for them that shall be changed; for David. SAVE me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Ngai-rĩ, honokia, nĩgũkorwo maaĩ maanginyĩte o ngingo.
2 I stick fast in the mire of the deep: and there is no sure standing. I am come into the depth of the sea: and a tempest hath overwhelmed me.
Ndĩratoonyerera mũtondo-inĩ mũriku, handũ hatarĩ na ha gũkinyithia kũgũrũ. Nginyĩte maaĩ-inĩ harĩa hariku; mũiyũro wa maaĩ nĩũhumbĩkanĩtie.
3 I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse: my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in my God.
Nĩnogete mũno nĩ gũkaya ndeithio; mũmero wakwa nĩ mũngʼaru. Maitho makwa nĩmorĩtwo nĩ hinya nĩgũcũthĩrĩria Ngai wakwa.
4 They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, who hate me without cause. My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: then did I pay that which I took not away.
Andũ arĩa maathũire hatarĩ gĩtũmi nĩ aingĩ gũkĩra njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wakwa; thũ ciakwa iria iithũire hatarĩ gĩtũmi nĩ nyingĩ, o icio injaragia iniine. Hatagĩrĩrio njookie kĩndũ itaiyĩte.
5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my offences are not hidden from thee:
Wee Ngai nĩũũĩ ũrimũ wakwa; mahĩtia makwa matingĩhithĩka harĩwe.
6 Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, the Lord of hosts. Let them not be confounded on my account, who seek thee, O God of Israel.
Andũ arĩa makwĩhokete, maroaga gũconorithio nĩ ũndũ wakwa, Wee Mwathani, Jehova Mwene-Hinya-wothe; arĩa makũrongoragia maroaga kũnyararwo nĩ ũndũ wakwa, Wee Ngai wa Isiraeli.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩngirĩrĩirie kũmenwo nĩ ũndũ waku, naguo ũthiũ wakwa nĩũhumbĩtwo thoni.
8 I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.
Nduĩkĩte ta mũgeni harĩ ariũ a baba, ngatuĩka ta mũndũ wa kũngĩ harĩ ariũ a maitũ;
9 For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
kĩyo kĩrĩa ndĩ nakĩo kĩa nyũmba yaku nĩkĩo kĩrandĩa, irumi cia arĩa makũrumaga nĩ niĩ igũĩrĩire.
10 And I covered my soul in fasting: and it was made a reproach to me.
Rĩrĩa ngũrĩra na ngehinga kũrĩa irio, no nginya ngirĩrĩrie kũnyũrũrio;
11 And I made haircloth my garment: and I became a byword to them.
rĩrĩa ndehumba nguo ya ikũnia, andũ no gũũthekerera.
12 They that sat in the gate spoke against me: and they that drank wine made me their song.
Andũ arĩa maikaraga kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra nĩ niĩ manyũrũragia, na nduĩkĩte rwĩmbo rwa arĩĩu.
13 But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; for the time of thy good pleasure, O God. In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
Wee Jehova, nĩndakũhooya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ya gwĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩwe; Wee Ngai, nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku mũnene, ũnjĩtĩke na ũhonokio waku wa ma.
14 Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: deliver me from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Honokia ũndute mũtondo-inĩ, ndũkareke ndoonyerere; ndeithũra kuuma kũrĩ arĩa maathũire, ũndute kuuma maaĩ-inĩ marĩa mariku.
15 Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep swallow me up: and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
Ndũkareke mũiyũro wa maaĩ ũũhubĩkanie, kana merio nĩ kũrĩa kũriku, o na kana ndumĩrio kanua nĩ irima rĩa gĩkuũ.
16 Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Wee Jehova, njĩtĩka nĩ ũndũ wa wega wa wendo waku; nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciaku nyingĩ wĩhũgũre ũnjookerere.
17 And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
Ndũkahithe ndungata yaku ũthiũ waku; njĩtĩka narua, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ thĩĩna-inĩ.
18 Attend to my soul, and deliver it: save me because of my enemies.
Ũka hakuhĩ ũndeithũre; honokia kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciakwa.
19 Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, and my shame.
We nĩũũĩ ũrĩa nyũrũrĩtio, na ngaconorithio na ngahumbwo thoni; thũ ciakwa ciothe irĩ mbere yaku.
20 In thy sight are all they that afflict me; my heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
Kũnyũrũrio nĩ gũũthuthĩte ngoro ngatigwo itarĩ na mwĩhoko; ndeetereire nyone wa kũnjiguĩra tha, no ndiigana kũmuona, ngĩeterera nyone andũ a kũũhooreria, no ndiamonire.
21 And they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Maanjĩkĩrĩire maaĩ ma nyongo irio-inĩ ciakwa, na ndanyoota makĩĩhe thiki nyue.
22 Let their table become as a snare before them, and a recompense, and a stumblingblock.
Metha ĩrĩa maarĩirwo ĩrotuĩka mũtego; ĩrotuĩka ihũũra o na mũtego wa kũmagwatia.
23 Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and their back bend thou down always.
Maitho mao marogĩa nduma matige gũcooka kuona, nayo mĩgongo yao ĩrohocerera nginya tene.
24 Pour out thy indignation upon them: and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Maitũrũrĩre mangʼũrĩ maku; makinyĩrie marakara maku mahiũ.
25 Let their habitation be made desolate: and let there be none to dwell in their tabernacles.
Mĩciĩ yao ĩrokira ihooru; kũroaga mũndũ wa gũtũũra hema-inĩ ciao.
26 Because they have persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
Nĩgũkorwo manyariiraga arĩa wee ũgurarĩtie, na makaaria ũhoro wa ruo rwa arĩa ũtiihĩtie.
27 Add thou iniquity upon their iniquity: and let them not come into thy justice.
Mathitangĩre o ngero thuutha wa ĩrĩa ĩngĩ; ndũkanareke magatoonya ũhonokanio-inĩ waku.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; and with the just let them not be written.
Marothario ibuku-inĩ rĩa muoyo, mage kwandĩkwo mũtaratara-inĩ wa andũ arĩa athingu.
29 But I am poor and sorrowful: thy salvation, O God, hath set me up.
Ndĩ na ruo na ngathĩĩnĩka; Wee Ngai kĩĩhonokie na ũngitĩre.
30 I will praise the name of God with a canticle: and I will magnify him with praise.
Nĩngũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai na rwĩmbo, na ndĩmũtũũgĩrie ngĩmũcookagĩria ngaatho.
31 And it shall please God better than a young calf, that bringeth forth horns and hoofs.
Naguo ũndũ ũcio nĩũgũgĩkenia Jehova gũkĩra kũmũhe ndegwa, na gũkĩra ndegwa nene ĩrĩ na hĩa na mahũngũ.
32 Let the poor see and rejoice: seek ye God, and your soul shall live.
Andũ arĩa athĩĩni mona ũguo nĩmagakena; inyuĩ arĩa mũrongoragia Ngai, ngoro cianyu iroarahũka!
33 For the Lord hath heard the poor: and hath not despised his prisoners.
Jehova nĩathikagĩrĩria arĩa abatari, na ndangĩnyarara andũ ake moohetwo.
34 Let the heavens and the earth praise him; the sea, and every thing that creepeth therein.
Igũrũ na thĩ nĩimũgooce, o na maria marĩa manene na kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩthiiagĩra thĩinĩ wamo,
35 For God will save Sion, and the cities of Juda shall be built up. And they shall dwell there, and acquire it by inheritance.
nĩgũkorwo Ngai nĩakahonokia Zayuni, na aake matũũra marĩa manene ma Juda rĩngĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ nĩmagatũũra kuo na makwĩgwatĩre;
36 And the seed of his servants shall possess it; and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
ciana cia ndungata ciake nĩigakũgaya, nao arĩa mendete rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩmagatũũra kuo.
