< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!
Goocai Jehova. Kũrathimwo nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩtigagĩra Jehova, ũrĩa ũkenagĩra maathani make mũno.
2 Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.
Ciana ciake nĩigatuĩka cia bata bũrũri-inĩ; rũciaro rwa arĩa arũngĩrĩru nĩrũkarathimwo.
3 Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.
Gwake mũciĩ gũkoragwo na ũtonga na indo nyingĩ, naguo ũthingu wake ũtũũraga nginya tene.
4 Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mũrũngĩrĩru o na arĩ nduma-inĩ nĩatheragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri, ũgatherera mũndũ ũcio mũtugani, ningĩ arĩ tha, o na nĩ mũthingu.
5 Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.
Mũndũ ũcio mũtugani na ũheanaga o ũguo tũhũ, o ũcio wĩkaga maũndũ make na kĩhooto-rĩ, nĩarĩonaga maũndũ mega.
6 They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.
Ti-itherũ mũndũ ũcio ndakenyenyeka; mũndũ mũthingu atũũraga aririkanagwo nginya tene.
7 They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.
Angĩigua ũhoro mũũru ndangĩĩtigĩra; ngoro yake nĩĩkindĩire, aikaraga ehokete o Jehova.
8 They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.
Ngoro yake nĩngitĩre, ndangĩĩtigĩra; marigĩrĩrio-inĩ nĩakoona gũtoorio gwa thũ ciake.
9 They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.
Nĩahurunjĩte iheo ciake akahe andũ arĩa athĩĩni, naguo ũthingu wake ũtũũraga nginya tene; rũhĩa rwake nĩrũkambarario na igũrũ, aheo gĩtĩĩo.
10 The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu nĩakoona ũguo na arakare, nĩakahagarania magego make, acooke abuĩrie; merirĩria ma arĩa aaganu matigaakinyanĩra.
