Psalms 81
1 To him that excelleth upon Gittith. A Psalme committed to Asaph. Sing ioyfully vnto God our strength: sing loude vnto the God of Iaakob.
Thaburi ya Asafu Inĩrai Ngai, o we hinya witũ, nĩ ũndũ wa gũkena; anĩrĩrai mũinĩre Ngai wa Jakubu!
2 Take the song and bring forth the timbrel, the pleasant harpe with the viole.
Ambĩrĩriai kũina, hũũrai kĩhembe, na mũhũũre kĩnanda kĩa mũgeeto kĩrĩa kĩgambi wega, o na gĩa kĩnũbi.
3 Blowe the trumpet in the newe moone, euen in the time appointed, at our feast day.
Huhai coro hĩndĩ ya Karũgamo ka Mweri, na ningĩ rĩrĩa mweri waiganana, mũthenya ũrĩa wa Gĩathĩ giitũ;
4 For this is a statute for Israel, and a Law of the God of Iaakob.
ũyũ nĩ watho wa kĩrĩra gĩa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kũrĩ Isiraeli, o guo watho wa Ngai wa Jakubu.
5 Hee set this in Ioseph for a testimonie, when hee came out of the land of Egypt, where I heard a language, that I vnderstoode not.
We nĩaũhaandire ũtuĩke kĩrĩra harĩ Jusufu hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aathiire gũtharĩkĩra bũrũri wa Misiri, kũrĩa twaiguire mwario tũtaamenyire.
6 I haue withdrawen his shoulder from the burden, and his handes haue left the pots.
Ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndeheririe mũrigo kuuma ciande-inĩ ciao; moko mao nĩndameheririe kuuma thĩinĩ wa gĩkabũ.
7 Thou calledst in affliction and I deliuered thee, and answered thee in the secret of the thunder: I prooued thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
Wangaĩire ũrĩ na mĩnyamaro na niĩ ngĩkũhatũra, ngĩgwĩtĩka ndĩ thĩinĩ wa mũrurumo wa ngwa; ndakũgeririe ũrĩ kũu maaĩ-inĩ ma Meriba.
8 Heare, O my people, and I wil protest vnto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken vnto me,
“Inyuĩ andũ akwa, iguai ngĩmũkaania, naarĩ korwo no mũũthikĩrĩrie, inyuĩ Isiraeli!
9 Let there bee no strange god in thee, neither worship thou any strange god.
Mũtikanagĩe na ngai ngʼeni gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu; mũtikanainamĩrĩre ngai ya kũngĩ.
10 For I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide and I will fill it.
Nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai waku, ũrĩa wakũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri. Athamia kanua gaku na nĩngũkũhe gĩa kũrĩa.
11 But my people would not heare my voyce, and Israel would none of me.
“No andũ akwa matiigana gũũthikĩrĩria; Isiraeli ndaigana kũnjathĩkĩra.
12 So I gaue them vp vnto the hardnesse of their heart, and they haue walked in their owne cousels.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmarekereria marũmĩrĩre ũremi wa ngoro ciao, na marũmagĩrĩre mwĩĩro wao ene.
13 Oh that my people had hearkened vnto me, and Israel had walked in my wayes.
“Korwo andũ akwa no maathikĩrĩrie, korwo Isiraeli no marũmĩrĩre njĩra ciakwa,
14 I would soone haue humbled their enemies, and turned mine hand against their aduersaries.
ndamatooreria thũ ciao o na ihenya, na njũkĩrĩre andũ arĩa marĩ muku nao na ũndũ wa guoko gwakwa!
15 The haters of the Lord should haue bene subiect vnto him, and their time should haue endured for euer.
Andũ arĩa mathũire Jehova mangĩĩthuna marĩ mbere yake, na iherithia rĩao rĩtũũre nginya tene.
16 And God would haue fedde them with the fatte of wheat, and with honie out of the rocke would I haue sufficed thee.
No inyuĩ ingĩmũhe ngano ĩrĩa njega mũno mũrĩĩage; ingĩmũhũũnagia na ũũkĩ wa kuuma rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga.”
