Psalms 50
1 A PSALM OF ASAPH. The God of gods—YHWH—has spoken, And He calls to the earth From the rising of the sun to its going in.
Thaburi ya Asafu Jehova, o we Ngai ũcio Mwene-Hinya, nĩaraaria, ageeta thĩ yothe kuuma irathĩro rĩa riũa nginya kũrĩa rĩthũagĩra.
2 From Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shone.
Ngai aracangarara arĩ Zayuni itũũra rĩu ithaka mũno.
3 Our God comes, and is not silent, Fire devours before Him, And around Him it has been very tempestuous.
Ngai witũ nĩ gũũka arooka na ndegũkira; mbere yake nĩ mwaki ũrakana, na akarigiicĩrio nĩ kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene.
4 He calls to the heavens from above, And to the earth, to judge His people.
Areeta igũrũ na thĩ nĩguo ituĩke aira agĩciirithia andũ ake:
5 Gather My saints to Me, Making covenant with Me over a 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 Himself is judging. (Selah)
Narĩo igũrũ rĩanagĩrĩra ũthingu wake, nĩgũkorwo Ngai we mwene nĩwe mũtuanĩri ciira.
7 Hear, O My people, and I speak, O Israel, and I testify against you, God—I [am] your God.
“Inyuĩ andũ akwa, thikĩrĩriai na nĩngwaria, ũthikĩrĩrie, wee Isiraeli, na nĩngũruta ũira wa gũgũthita: nĩ niĩ Ngai, o Ngai waku.
8 I do not reprove you for your sacrifices, Indeed, your 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 do not take a bullock from your house, [Or] male goats from your folds.
Ndibatarĩtio nĩ ndegwa yumĩte kiugũ gĩaku, kana mbũri ciumĩte ciugũ ciaku,
10 For every beast of the forest [is] Mine, The livestock on the hills of oxen.
nĩgũkorwo nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka nĩ ciakwa, na ngʼombe iria irĩ tũrĩma-inĩ ngiri na ngiri.
11 I have known every bird of the mountains, And the wild beast of the field [is] with Me.
Nyoni ciothe iria irĩ kũu irĩma-inĩ, gũtirĩ o na ĩmwe itooĩ, na ciũmbe ciothe cia werũ-inĩ nĩ ciakwa.
12 If I am hungry I do not tell [it] to you, For the world and its fullness [is] Mine.
Ingĩkorwo hũtiĩ, ndingĩkwĩra, nĩgũkorwo thĩ nĩ yakwa, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls, And drink the blood of male goats?
Niĩ nĩndĩĩaga nyama cia ndegwa, o na kana nganyua thakame ya mbũri?
14 Sacrifice to God confession, And complete your vows to the Most High.
Rutĩra Ngai igongona rĩa gũcookia ngaatho, na ũhingagĩrie Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno mĩĩhĩtwa yaku,
15 And call Me in a day of adversity, I deliver you, and you honor Me.
na ũngayagĩre mũthenya wa mĩnyamaro; na nĩndĩrĩkũhonokagia, nawe ũngoocage.”
16 And to the wicked God has said: What to you—to recount My statutes? That you lift up My covenant on your mouth?
No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu Ngai ekũmũũria atĩrĩ: “Ũrĩ na kĩhooto kĩrĩkũ gĩa kuuga mawatho makwa, kana kwaria ũhoro wa kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa?
17 Indeed, you have hated instruction, And cast My words behind you.
Nĩũmenete ũrutani wakwa, na ũgateanĩria ciugo ciakwa.
18 If you have seen a thief, Then you are pleased with him, And your portion [is] with adulterers.
Rĩrĩa wona mũici, ũnyiitanagĩra nake; na ũgĩĩaga ũrũmwe na itharia.
19 You have sent forth your mouth with evil, And your tongue joins deceit together,
Ũhũthagĩra kanua gaku kwaria ndeto njũru, na rũrĩmĩ rwaku naruo rũkaaragia maheeni.
20 You sit, you speak against your brother, You give slander against a son of your mother.
Hĩndĩ ciothe waragia ndeto cia gũũkĩrĩra mũrũ wa thoguo, ũgagĩcambia mũrũ-wa-nyũkwa.
21 These you did, and I kept silent, You have thought that I am like you, I reprove you, and set in array before your eyes.
Maũndũ macio ũmekaga o ngirĩte, nawe ũgeciiria atĩ niĩ ndariĩ o tawe. No rĩrĩ, rĩu nĩngũkũrũithia, nguonie maũndũ marĩa wĩkĩte.
22 Now understand this, You who are forgetting God, Lest I tear, and there is no deliverer.
“Mwĩcũraniei ũhoro ũyũ, inyuĩ mũriganagĩrwo nĩ Ngai, nĩguo ndikamũtambuure, na haage mũndũ wa kũmũteithũra.
23 He who is sacrificing praise honors Me, As for him who makes a way, I cause him to look on the salvation of God!
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrutaga igongona rĩa gũcookia ngaatho nĩ niĩ atĩĩaga, na akahaarĩria njĩra nĩgeetha ndĩmuonie ũhonokanio wa Ngai.”
