Psalms 89
1 Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
Thaburi ya Ethani wa mbarĩ ya Ezara Ngũtũũra nyinaga ũhoro wa wendo mũnene wa Jehova nginya tene; ndĩrĩmenyithanagia wĩhokeku waku na kanua gakwa kũrĩ njiarwa na njiarwa.
2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever; thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
Nĩngumbũra atĩ wendo waku ũtũũraga ũrĩ mũrũmu nginya tene, nyumbũre atĩ wĩhokeku waku nĩũũhaandĩte o kũu igũrũ.
3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant;
Woigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩngĩte kĩrĩkanĩro na ũrĩa niĩ ndĩthuurĩire, na ngeehĩta na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi ndungata yakwa ngamwĩra atĩrĩ,
4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Selah)
‘Nĩngatũma rũciaro rwaku rũtũũre rwĩhaandĩte nginya tene, na ndũme gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu njiarwa na njiarwa.’”
5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD; thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
Wee Jehova-rĩ, igũrũ nĩrĩkumagia magegania maku, na rĩkagaathĩrĩria wĩhokeku waku o naguo, kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa acio atheru.
6 For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty is like unto the LORD,
Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, kũu matu-inĩ igũrũ nũũ ũngĩgerekanio na Jehova? Nũũ ũkĩhaana ta Jehova harĩ ciũmbe iria irĩ igũrũ?
7 A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, and to be feared above all them that are round about him?
Kĩama-inĩ kĩa acio atheru, Mũrungu nĩetigĩrĩtwo mũno; nĩ wa gwĩtigĩrwo gũkĩra arĩa othe mamũrigiicĩirie.
8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O JAH? and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
Wee Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nũũ ũkĩhaana tawe? Wee Jehova, nĩ ũrĩ hinya, na wĩhokeku waku ũtũũraga ũkũrigiicĩirie.
9 Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
Nĩwe wathaga kĩhuhũkanio kĩa iria rĩrĩa inene; rĩrĩa makũmbĩ marĩo mookĩra na igũrũ, nĩũmahooreragia.
10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength.
Wahehenjire Rahabu agĩtuĩka o ta ũmwe wa arĩa moragĩtwo; wahurunjire thũ ciaku na guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya.
11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
Igũrũ nĩ rĩaku, o na thĩ no yaku; Wee nĩwe wombire thĩ na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.
12 The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name.
Nĩwe wombire mwena wa gathigathini na wa gũthini; Taboru na Herimoni ciinaga ikenete nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
Gĩcoka gĩaku nĩ kĩrĩ ũhoti; guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya, guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo nĩgũtũgĩrie.
14 Righteousness and judgment are the foundation of thy throne: mercy and truth go before thy face.
Ũthingu na kĩhooto nĩcio mũthingi wa gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene; wendo na wĩhokeku nĩigũtongoragia.
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩa mooĩ gũkũgooca na nyĩmbo, o arĩa mathiiaga na ũtheri waku, Wee Jehova.
16 In thy name do they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness are they exalted.
Makenagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku mũthenya wothe; magũtũũgagĩria nĩ ũndũ wa ũthingu waku.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
Nĩgũkorwo Wee nĩwe riiri na hinya wao, na tondũ wa ũtugi waku nĩũtũũgagĩria rũhĩa rwitũ.
18 For our shield belongeth unto the LORD; and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
Ti-itherũ, ngo iitũ ĩrĩ na Jehova, mũthamaki witũ nĩ wa Ũrĩa-Mũtheru-wa-Isiraeli.
19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
Hĩndĩ ĩmwe nĩwaririe na njĩra ya kĩoneki, ũkĩĩra andũ aku arĩa ehokeku atĩrĩ, “Nĩheete njamba ĩmwe ya ita hinya; nĩndũgĩrĩtie mwanake gatagatĩ ka andũ.
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
Nĩndĩĩoneire Daudi ndungata yakwa; nĩndĩmũitĩrĩirie maguta makwa maamũre.
21 With whom my hand shall be established; mine arm also shall strengthen him.
Guoko gwakwa nĩkũrĩmũtiiragĩrĩra; ti-itherũ gĩcoka gĩakwa nĩkĩrĩmwĩkagĩra hinya.
22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
Gũtirĩ thũ ĩkaamwĩtia igooti. gũtirĩ mũndũ mwaganu ũkaamũhinyĩrĩria.
23 And I will beat down his adversaries before him, and smite them that hate him.
Nĩngahehenja thũ ciake mbere yake, na njũrage arĩa othe mamũthũire.
24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
Wendo wakwa wa kwĩhokeka ũrĩkoragwo hamwe nake, na nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rũhĩa rwake nĩrũrĩtũũgagĩrio.
25 I will set his hand also on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
Nĩngatambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ rĩa iria, na guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo ndĩkũige igũrũ rĩa njũũĩ.
26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
Nĩakanjĩta anjĩĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Wee nĩwe Baba, na Mũrungu wakwa, o Rwaro rwa Ihiga, Mũhonokia wakwa.’
27 I also will make him [my] firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
Ningĩ nĩngamwamũra atuĩke irigithathi rĩakwa, na ndũme atũũgĩrio gũkĩra athamaki a thĩ.
28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
Nĩngũtũũria wendo wakwa harĩ we nginya tene, na kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nake gĩtũũre kĩrĩ gĩa kwĩhokeka.
29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
Nĩngahaanda rũciaro rwake nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene ndĩkĩhaande rĩrĩa rĩothe igũrũ rĩgũtũũra.
30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
“Ariũ ake mangĩgatirika watho wakwa na mage kũrũmĩrĩra kĩrĩra gĩakwa,
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
mangĩgathũkia kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na mage kũmenyerera maathani makwa,
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
nĩngaherithia wĩhia wao na rũthanju, herithie waganu wao na kũmahũũra iboko;
33 But my mercy will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
no ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaamwehereria wendo wakwa, o na kana thaahie wĩhokeku wakwa o na rĩ.
34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
Ndigathũkia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa kana ngarũrĩre ũrĩa iromo ciakwa ciarĩtie.
35 Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David;
Nĩndĩhĩtĩte ngĩgwetaga ũtheru wakwa, rĩmwe rĩa kũigana, na ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaaheenia Daudi,
36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
atĩ rũciaro rwake rũgũtũũra nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu mbere yakwa ta riũa;
37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and [as] the faithful witness in the sky. (Selah)
gĩgũtũũra kĩrĩ kĩrũmu nginya tene o ta mweri, mũira ũrĩa ũrĩ matu-inĩ nĩ mwĩhokeku.”
38 But thou hast cast off and rejected, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
No rĩrĩ, wee nĩũregete, na ũgatiganĩria, o na ũgakĩrakarĩra ũcio ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
39 Thou hast abhorred the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown [even] to the ground.
Wee nĩũkanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ũrĩkanĩire na ndungata yaku, na ũkarangĩrĩria thũmbĩ yake rũkũngũ-inĩ.
40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to rain.
Wee ũmomorete thingo ciake ciothe na ũkaananga ciĩhitho ciake iria cia hinya.
41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is become a reproach to his neighbours.
Ehĩtũkĩri othe nĩmatahĩte indo ciake; atuĩkĩte wa kũnyararwo nĩ andũ arĩa mariganĩtie nake.
42 Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
Wee nĩũtũũgĩrĩtie guoko kwa ũrĩo kwa arĩa mamũthũire; nĩũtũmĩte thũ ciake ciothe ikene.
43 Yea, thou turnest back the edge his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
Ũũgĩ wa rũhiũ rwake rwa njora nĩũũhũndũrĩte, na ũkaaga kũmũteithĩrĩria mbaara-inĩ.
44 Thou hast made his brightness to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
Nĩũniinĩte riiri wake ũgathira, na ũgaikania gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene thĩ.
45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
Nĩũnyiihĩtie matukũ ma wĩthĩ wake; ũmũhumbĩte thoni o ta nguo.
46 How long, O LORD, wilt thou hid thyself for ever? [how long] shall thy wrath burn like fire?
Nĩ nginya rĩ, Wee Jehova? Ũgũtũũra wĩhithĩte nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ mangʼũrĩ maku megũtũũra maakanĩte ta mwaki?
47 O remember how short my time is: for what vanity hast thou created all the children of men!
Ririkana ũrĩa mũtũũrĩre wakwa ũrĩ wa gũthira o narua. Kaĩ akĩrĩ ũndũ wa tũhũ watũmire ũmbe andũ othe!
48 What man is he that shall live and not see death, that shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ ũngĩtũũra muoyo na ndonane na gĩkuũ, kana ehonokie kuuma kũrĩ hinya wa mbĩrĩra? (Sheol h7585)
49 Lord, where are thy former mercies, which thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?
Wee Mwathani, wendo waku mũnene ũrĩa wa tene ũkĩrĩ kũ, ũrĩa wehĩtire, ũkĩĩrĩra Daudi na ũndũ wa wĩhokeku waku?
50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty peoples:
Mwathani, ririkana ũrĩa ndungata yaku ĩnyũrũrĩtio, na ũrĩa nyũmĩrĩirie irumi iria numĩtwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ngoro-inĩ yakwa,
51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD, wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
o irumi iria thũ ciaku iinyũrũrĩtie nacio, Wee Jehova, iria itũire inyũrũrĩtie makinya ma ũrĩa wee ũitĩrĩirie maguta nacio.
52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
Jehova arogoocwo nginya tene!
