< Psalms 34 >
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
Thaburi ya Daudi Ndĩrĩkumagia Jehova hĩndĩ ciothe; ndĩrĩmũgoocaga na kanua gakwa hĩndĩ ciothe.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
Ngoro yakwa nĩ Jehova ĩrĩĩrahaga; arĩa anyamaarĩku marĩiguaga ũguo magakena.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
Goocai Jehova mũmũnenehie mũrĩ hamwe na niĩ; rekei tũtũũgĩrie rĩĩtwa rĩake tũrĩ hamwe.
4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Ndarongoririe Jehova, nake akĩnjĩtĩka, akĩndeithũra kuuma kũrĩ maũndũ marĩa mothe maanjĩkagĩra guoya.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
Andũ arĩa mamũcũthagĩrĩria matheragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri; mothiũ mao gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaaconorithio.
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Mũndũ ũyũ mũthĩĩni aakaĩire Jehova, nake Jehova akĩmũigua, akĩmũhonokia mathĩĩna-inĩ make mothe.
7 The angel of the LORD camps round about them that fear him, and delivers them.
Mũraika wa Jehova aikaraga arangĩire arĩa othe mamwĩtigagĩra, na akamateithũra othe.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.
Camai muone atĩ Jehova nĩ mwega; kũrathimwo nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũragĩra harĩ we.
9 O fear the LORD, all of you his saints: for there is no lack to them that fear him.
Mwĩtigĩrei Jehova, inyuĩ andũ ake aamũre, nĩgũkorwo arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte gũtirĩ kĩndũ maagaga.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
Mĩrũũthi no yage gĩa kũrĩa ĩhũte, no arĩa marongoragia Jehova gũtirĩ kĩndũ kĩega maagaga.
11 Come, all of you children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Ũkai ciana ciakwa, mũthikĩrĩrie ũrĩa nguuga; nĩngũmũruta gwĩtigĩra Jehova.
12 What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
Mũndũ ũrĩa wanyu ũngĩenda gũtũũra muoyo, na erirĩrie kuona matukũ maingĩ mega,
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile.
nĩakĩmenyerere rũrĩmĩ rwake rũtikoige ũũru, na mĩromo yake ndĩkaarie maheeni.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
Garũrũka utige gwĩka ũũru na wĩke ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire; caragia thayũ na ũũthingatage.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
Maitho ma Jehova macũthagĩrĩria andũ arĩa athingu, na matũ make magathikĩrĩria kĩrĩro kĩao;
16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
ũthiũ wa Jehova ũũkagĩrĩra andũ arĩa mekaga ũũru, nĩguo moima thĩ matikanaririkanwo.
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
Andũ arĩa athingu makayaga, Jehova akamaigua; amateithũraga kuuma mathĩĩna-inĩ mao mothe.
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saves such as be of a contrite spirit.
Jehova akoragwo arĩ hakuhĩ na andũ arĩa ahehenjeku ngoro, na akahonokia arĩa athuthĩku roho.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mũthingu no akorwo arĩ na mathĩĩna maingĩ, no Jehova amũteithũraga harĩ mo mothe;
20 He keeps all his bones: not one of them is broken.
agitagĩra mahĩndĩ make mothe, gũtirĩ o na rĩmwe rĩngiunĩka.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
Andũ arĩa aaganu makooragwo nĩ ũũru; nao arĩa mathũire andũ arĩa athingu nĩmagatuĩrwo ciira.
22 The LORD redeems the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
Jehova akũũraga ndungata ciake; arĩa othe moragĩra harĩ we gũtirĩ ũgaatuĩrwo ciira.
