Psalms 143
1 Hear my prayer, O YHWH, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
Thaburi ya Daudi Igua ihooya rĩakwa, Wee Jehova, thikĩrĩria kĩrĩro gĩakwa ũnjiguĩre tha; ũka ũndeithie, nĩ ũndũ wa wĩhokeku waku na ũthingu waku.
2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.
Ndũgaciirithie ndungata yaku, nĩgũkorwo maitho-inĩ maku gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ muoyo ũngĩtuuo mũthingu.
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
Thũ nĩĩthingatĩte, ĩkangurumania thĩ tĩĩri-inĩ; ĩtũmaga ndũũre nduma-inĩ ta arĩa maakuire tene.
4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio roho wakwa ũkaringĩka thĩinĩ wakwa; ngoro yakwa nĩĩmakĩte mũno thĩinĩ wakwa.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.
Nĩndĩrĩririkanaga matukũ marĩa ma tene; ndĩrĩcũũranagia mawĩko maku mothe na ngatarania maũndũ marĩa moko maku meekĩte.
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
Ndambũrũkĩtie moko makwa na kũrĩ we; muoyo wakwa ũkũnyootagĩra ta bũrũri ũrĩa mũũmũ.
7 Hear me speedily, O YHWH: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
Wee Jehova, hiũha kũnjĩtĩka; roho wakwa nĩũthirĩtwo nĩ hinya. Tiga kũũhitha ũthiũ waku, ndikahaane ta arĩa matoonyaga irima.
8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.
O rũciinĩ reke njiguage kiugo kĩa wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ndĩĩhokete. Nyonia njĩra ĩrĩa njagĩrĩirwo nĩkũgera, nĩgũkorwo muoyo wakwa ndĩwerekeirie igũrũ kũrĩ we.
9 Deliver me, O YHWH, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
Ndeithũra kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciakwa, Wee Jehova, nĩgũkorwo ndĩĩhithaga harĩwe.
10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my Elohim: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
Nduta gwĩkaga wendi waku, nĩgũkorwo Wee nĩwe Ngai wakwa; Roho waku mwega arondongoragia, ngeragĩre kũrĩa kwaraganu.
11 Quicken me, O YHWH, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.
Wee Jehova, nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku, tũũria muoyo wakwa; nĩ ũndũ wa ũthingu waku-rĩ, nduta kuuma mĩnyamaro-inĩ.
12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
Nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku ũtathiraga, kiria thũ ciakwa; niina arĩa othe maathũire, nĩgũkorwo niĩ ndĩ ndungata yaku.
