< Psalms 50 >

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God, God, the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
Thaburi ya Asafu Jehova, o we Ngai ũcio Mwene-Hinya, nĩaraaria, ageeta thĩ yothe kuuma irathĩro rĩa riũa nginya kũrĩa rĩthũagĩra.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth.
Ngai aracangarara arĩ Zayuni itũũra rĩu ithaka mũno.
3 Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence; a fire devoureth before Him, and round about Him it stormeth mightily.
Ngai witũ nĩ gũũka arooka na ndegũkira; mbere yake nĩ mwaki ũrakana, na akarigiicĩrio nĩ kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene.
4 He calleth to the heavens above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people:
Areeta igũrũ na thĩ nĩguo ituĩke aira agĩciirithia andũ ake:
5 'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.'
“Cookanĩrĩrai harĩ niĩ inyuĩ andũ akwa aamũre, o inyuĩ mwagĩire kĩrĩkanĩro na niĩ na ũndũ wa kũndutĩra igongona.”
6 And the heavens declare His righteousness; for God, He is judge. (Selah)
Narĩo igũrũ rĩanagĩrĩra ũthingu wake, nĩgũkorwo Ngai we mwene nĩwe mũtuanĩri ciira.
7 'Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.
“Inyuĩ andũ akwa, thikĩrĩriai na nĩngwaria, ũthikĩrĩrie, wee Isiraeli, na nĩngũruta ũira wa gũgũthita: nĩ niĩ Ngai, o Ngai waku.
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before Me.
Ndirakũrũithia nĩ ũndũ wa magongona maku, o na kana nĩ ũndũ wa maruta maku ma njino, marĩa makoragwo mbere yakwa hĩndĩ ciothe.
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.
Ndibatarĩtio nĩ ndegwa yumĩte kiugũ gĩaku, kana mbũri ciumĩte ciugũ ciaku,
10 For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
nĩgũkorwo nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka nĩ ciakwa, na ngʼombe iria irĩ tũrĩma-inĩ ngiri na ngiri.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains; and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.
Nyoni ciothe iria irĩ kũu irĩma-inĩ, gũtirĩ o na ĩmwe itooĩ, na ciũmbe ciothe cia werũ-inĩ nĩ ciakwa.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.
Ingĩkorwo hũtiĩ, ndingĩkwĩra, nĩgũkorwo thĩ nĩ yakwa, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Niĩ nĩndĩĩaga nyama cia ndegwa, o na kana nganyua thakame ya mbũri?
14 Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High;
Rutĩra Ngai igongona rĩa gũcookia ngaatho, na ũhingagĩrie Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno mĩĩhĩtwa yaku,
15 And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.'
na ũngayagĩre mũthenya wa mĩnyamaro; na nĩndĩrĩkũhonokagia, nawe ũngoocage.”
16 But unto the wicked God saith: 'What hast thou to do to declare My statutes, and that thou hast taken My covenant in thy mouth?
No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu Ngai ekũmũũria atĩrĩ: “Ũrĩ na kĩhooto kĩrĩkũ gĩa kuuga mawatho makwa, kana kwaria ũhoro wa kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest My words behind thee.
Nĩũmenete ũrutani wakwa, na ũgateanĩria ciugo ciakwa.
18 When thou sawest a thief, thou hadst company with him, and with adulterers was thy portion.
Rĩrĩa wona mũici, ũnyiitanagĩra nake; na ũgĩĩaga ũrũmwe na itharia.
19 Thou hast let loose thy mouth for evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Ũhũthagĩra kanua gaku kwaria ndeto njũru, na rũrĩmĩ rwaku naruo rũkaaragia maheeni.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
Hĩndĩ ciothe waragia ndeto cia gũũkĩrĩra mũrũ wa thoguo, ũgagĩcambia mũrũ-wa-nyũkwa.
21 These things hast thou done, and should I have kept silence? Thou hadst thought that I was altogether such a one as thyself; but I will reprove thee, and set the cause before thine eyes.
Maũndũ macio ũmekaga o ngirĩte, nawe ũgeciiria atĩ niĩ ndariĩ o tawe. No rĩrĩ, rĩu nĩngũkũrũithia, nguonie maũndũ marĩa wĩkĩte.
22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
“Mwĩcũraniei ũhoro ũyũ, inyuĩ mũriganagĩrwo nĩ Ngai, nĩguo ndikamũtambuure, na haage mũndũ wa kũmũteithũra.
23 Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrutaga igongona rĩa gũcookia ngaatho nĩ niĩ atĩĩaga, na akahaarĩria njĩra nĩgeetha ndĩmuonie ũhonokanio wa Ngai.”
