Psalms 132
1 A Song of Degrees. Lord, remember David, and all his meekness:
Thaburi ya Agendi Wee Jehova, ririkana Daudi na mathĩĩna marĩa mothe omĩrĩirie.
2 how he sware to the Lord, [and] vowed to the God of Jacob, [saying],
Nĩehĩtire mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Jehova, akĩĩhĩta harĩ ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, akiuga ũũ:
3 I will not go into the tabernacle of my house; I will not go up to the couch of my bed;
“Ndigatoonya nyũmba yakwa, kana haice ũrĩrĩ wakwa,
4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids, nor rest to my temples,
ndikaareke maitho makwa mone toro, kana ndeke imone ciakwa icũnge,
5 until I find a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
o nginya ngoonera Jehova handũ ha gũikara, ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, ndĩmuonere gĩikaro.”
6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephratha; we found it in the fields of the wood.
Nĩtwaiguire ũhoro tũrĩ Efiratha, na tũkĩũkora mĩgũnda-inĩ ya Kiriathu Jearimu.
7 Let us enter into his tabernacles: let us worship at the place where his feet stood.
Tũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩi gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake; nĩtũinamĩrĩre tũmũhooe tũrĩ gaturwa-inĩ ka makinya make;
8 Arise, O Lord, into your rest; you, and the ark of your holiness.
arahũka, Wee Jehova, ũũke kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩaku, wee na ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩa hinya waku.
9 Your priests shall clothe themselves with righteousness; and your saints shall exult.
Athĩnjĩri aku marohumbwo na ũthingu; andũ aku aamũre nĩmakĩine nĩ gũkena.”
10 For the sake of your servant David turn not away the face of your anointed.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ndungata yaku Daudi, ndũkarega ũrĩa we ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
11 The Lord sware [in] truth to David, and he will not annul it, [saying], Of the fruit of your body will I set [a king] upon your throne.
Jehova nĩehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi, mwĩhĩtwa atangĩĩricũkwo, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Nĩngaikarĩria ũmwe wa rũciaro rwaku Gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene,
12 If your children will deep my covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them, their children also shall sit upon your throne for ever.
ariũ aku mangĩkaamenyerera kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa na mawatho makwa marĩa ndĩrĩmarutaga, hĩndĩ ĩyo ariũ ao nĩmagaikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene nginya tene na tene.”
13 For the Lord has elected Sion, he has chosen her for a habitation for himself, [saying],
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩathuurĩte Zayuni, akerirĩria gũtuĩke gĩikaro gĩake, akoiga atĩrĩ:
14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have chosen it.
“Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩhurũko gĩakwa nginya tene na tene; gũkũ nĩkuo ngũtũũra njikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, nĩgũkorwo nĩ niĩ ndĩyendeire;
15 I will surely bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
nĩngakũrathima na ũmaathi mũingĩ mũno; athĩĩni akuo ndĩmahũũnie na irio.
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation; and her saints shall greatly exult.
Nĩngahumba athĩnjĩri-Ngai akuo ũhonokio, na andũ akuo arĩa aamũre matũũre mainaga nĩ gũkena.
17 There will I cause to spring up a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for mine anointed.
“Kũu nĩkuo ngaatũma rũhĩa rwa Daudi rũthundũke na njigĩre ũrĩa njitĩrĩirie maguta tawa ũgwakana.
18 His enemies will I clothe with a shame; but upon himself shall my holiness flourish.
Thũ ciake nĩngacihumba thoni, no thũmbĩ ya ũnene ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mũtwe wake nĩĩgakenga na riiri.”
