Psalms 101

1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto you, O LORD, will I sing.

Thaburi ya Daudi Niĩ ndĩinaga ũhoro wa wendo na wa kĩhooto gĩaku; Wee Jehova nĩwe ndĩrĩgoocaga na rwĩmbo.

2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will you come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

Nĩngwĩmenyerera ndũũre mũtũũrĩre ũtarĩ ũcuuke: nĩ rĩ ũgaagĩũka kũrĩ niĩ? Nĩndĩrĩikaraga mũciĩ gwakwa ndĩ na ngoro ĩtarĩ ũcuuke.

3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

Gũtirĩ ũndũ mũũru ndĩrĩigaga mbere ya maitho makwa. Nĩthũire ciĩko cia andũ arĩa matarĩ wĩtĩkio; ndingĩĩtĩkĩra menyiitĩrĩre harĩ niĩ.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

Ndĩrĩikaraga haraihu na andũ arĩa marĩ ngoro nemi; ũũru-rĩ, ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaanyiitanĩra naguo.

5 Whoso privately slanders his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that has an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩcambia mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake na hitho, ũcio nĩngamũniina; mũndũ o wothe ũrĩ maitho ma rũngʼathio na ngoro ya mwĩtĩĩo, ũcio ndikamũkirĩrĩria.

6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walks in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

Maitho makwa-rĩ, marĩroraga andũ arĩa ehokeku bũrũri-inĩ, nĩguo maikaranagie na niĩ; mũndũ ũrĩa mĩthiĩre yake ĩtarĩ ũcuuke-rĩ, ũcio nĩarĩndungatagĩra.

7 He that works deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that tells lies shall not tarry in my sight.

Gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkaga maũndũ ma mawara ũgaikara nyũmba-inĩ yakwa; gũtirĩ mũndũ waragia maheeni ũkaarũgama mbere yakwa.

8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

O rũciinĩ nĩndĩrĩkiragia arĩa othe aaganu bũrũri-inĩ; nĩngeheria andũ arĩa othe mekaga ũũru mathire itũũra-inĩ rĩrĩa inene rĩa Jehova.
