Psalms 79
1 A Psalme committed to Asaph. O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance: thine holy Temple haue they defiled, and made Ierusalem heapes of stones.
Thaburi ya Asafu Wee Ngai, ndũrĩrĩ nĩitharĩkĩire igai rĩaku; nĩithaahĩtie hekarũ yaku theru, imomorete itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩgatuĩka irũndo cia mahiga.
2 The dead bodies of thy seruats haue they giuen to be meat vnto foules of ye heauen: and the flesh of thy Saintes vnto the beastes of the earth.
Ciimba cia ndungata ciaku macineanĩte ituĩke irio cia nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ, na mĩĩrĩ ya andũ aku aamũre makamĩheana kũrĩ nyamũ cia gĩthaka.
3 Their blood haue they shead like waters rounde about Ierusalem, and there was none to burie them.
Maitĩte thakame ya andũ aku ta maaĩ Jerusalemu guothe, na gũtirĩ mũndũ wa gũthika arĩa makuĩte.
4 Wee are a reproche to our neighbours, euen a scorne and derision vnto them that are round about vs.
Tũtuĩkĩte andũ a kũmenwo nĩ arĩa tũriganĩtie nao, tũgatuĩka andũ a kũnyararwo na gũthekererwo nĩ arĩa matũthiũrũrũkĩirie.
5 Lord, howe long wilt thou be angrie, for euer? shall thy gelousie burne like fire?
Wee Jehova-rĩ, nĩ nginya rĩ? Ũgũtũũra ũrĩ mũrakaru nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ ũiru waku ũgũtũũra wakanĩte ta mwaki?
6 Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen that haue not knowen thee, and vpon the kingdomes that haue not called vpon thy Name.
Itĩrĩria ndũrĩrĩ iria itakũũĩ mangʼũrĩ maku, ũmaitĩrĩrie mothamaki marĩa matakayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku;
7 For they haue deuoured Iaakob and made his dwelling place desolate.
nĩgũkorwo nĩmatambuurĩte Jakubu na makaananga bũrũri wake.
8 Remember not against vs the former iniquities, but make haste and let thy tender mercies preuent vs: for we are in great miserie.
Ndũgatũherithie nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma maithe maitũ; tha ciaku irohiũha itũkinyĩrĩre, nĩgũkorwo tũrĩ ahinyĩrĩrĩku mũno.
9 Helpe vs, O God of our saluation, for the glorie of thy Name, and deliuer vs, and be mercifull vnto our sinnes for thy Names sake.
Tũteithie, Wee Ngai Mũhonokia witũ; nĩ ũndũ wa riiri wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku; tũteithũre na ũtũrekere mehia maitũ nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
10 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be knowen among the heathen in our sight by the vengeance of the blood of thy seruants that is shed.
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ndũrĩrĩ ciũrie atĩrĩ, “Ngai wao akĩrĩ ha?” Menyithania kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ tũkĩĩonagĩra na maitho maitũ atĩ nĩũrĩhanagĩria thakame ya ndungata ciaku ĩrĩa ĩitĩtwo.
11 Let the sighing of the prisoners come before thee: according to thy mightie arme preserue the children of death,
Mũcaayo wa arĩa moohetwo njeera ũrogũkinyĩra; nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wa guoko gwaku gitĩra arĩa matuĩrĩirwo gũkua.
12 And render to our neighbours seuen folde into their bosome their reproche, wherewith they haue reproched thee, O Lord.
Wĩrĩhĩrie maita mũgwanja harĩ ndũrĩrĩ iria tũriganĩtie nacio, nĩ ũndũ wa rũmena rũrĩa makũmenete naruo, Wee Mwathani.
13 So wee thy people, and sheepe of thy pasture shall praise thee for euer: and from generation to generation we will set foorth thy praise.
Na ithuĩ andũ aku, o ithuĩ ngʼondu cia rũũru rwaku, tũkũgoocage nginya tene na tene; nĩtũrahage ũgooci waku, kuuma njiarwa na njiarwa.
