< Psalms 19 >
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. The heavens, are telling the glory of GOD, And, the work of his hands, the expanse is declaring;
Thaburi ya Daudi Igũrũ riumbũraga riiri wa Mũrungu; namo matu mamemerekagia wĩra wa moko make.
2 Day, unto day, doth pour forth speech, and, night, unto night, doth breathe out knowledge.
Mũthenya ũkinyagĩria mũthenya ũrĩa ũngĩ ũhoro; naguo ũtukũ ũkamenyithia ũtukũ ũrĩa ũngĩ ũhoro wa riiri ũcio.
3 There is no speech, and there are no words, —Unheard is their voice!
Gũtirĩ mĩario kana rũthiomi kũrĩa mũgambo wacio ũtaiguĩkaga.
4 [Yet] through all the earth, hath gone forth their voice, —and, to the end of the world, their sayings, —For the sun, hath he set up a tent therein;
Mũgambo wacio ũthiiaga thĩ yothe, nacio ciugo ciacio igakinya ituri cia thĩ. Ngai nĩambĩire riũa hema kũu igũrũ,
5 And, he, is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, he rejoiceth as a hero to run a race:
narĩo riumaga rĩhaana ta mũhikania akiuma nyũmba yake, o na kana ta mũtengʼeri njoorua akĩhĩĩahĩĩa gũtengʼera.
6 From one end of the heavens, is his going forth, and, his circuit, to the other end thereof—and, nothing, is hid from his glowing heat.
Rĩrathagĩra mwena-inĩ ũmwe wa kũu igũrũ, na rĩgathiũrũrũka nginya mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ; gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩtakinyagĩrwo nĩ ũrugarĩ warĩo.
7 The, law of Yahweh, is complete, Bringing back the soul, The, testimony of Yahweh, is confirmed, Making wise the simple;
Watho wa Jehova nĩ mũkinyanĩru, ũriũkagia ngoro ya mũndũ. Kĩrĩra kĩa Jehova nĩ gĩa kwĩhokeka, nĩkĩũhĩgagia mũndũ ũrĩa ũtarĩ mũũgĩ.
8 The precepts of Yahweh, are right, Rejoicing the heart, The, commandment of Yahweh, is pure, Enlightening the eyes;
Mataaro ma Jehova nĩmarũngĩrĩru, nĩ makenagia ngoro. Maathani ma Jehova nĩ macangararu, maheaga maitho ũtheri.
9 The, reverence of Yahweh, is clean, Enduring evermore, —The, decisions of Yahweh, are faithful, They are righteous, altogether:
Gwĩtigĩra Jehova nĩ ũndũ mũtheru, gũtũũraga nginya tene. Matua ma Jehova nĩ ma ma, na mothe nĩ ma kĩhooto.
10 More desirable, than gold, yea than much fine gold, Sweeter, also than honey, or than droppings from the comb.
Maũndũ macio nĩ ma goro gũkĩra thahabu, o na gũkĩra thahabu ĩrĩa therie mũno; marĩ mũrĩo gũkĩra ũũkĩ, o ũũkĩ ũrĩa uumĩte igua-inĩ.
11 Even thine own servant, taketh warning by them, In the keeping of them, great is the reward.
Ningĩ nĩmo mataaraga ndungata yaku; kũmamenyerera nĩ ũndũ ũrĩ irĩhi inene.
12 Mistakes, who perceiveth? From things that are hidden, acquit me:
Nũũ ũngĩhota gũkũũrana mahĩtia make? Ndekera mahĩtia makwa ma hitho-inĩ.
13 Even from the presumptuous, keep back thy servant, May they not have dominion over me, Then, shall I be blameless, and shall be acquitted from great transgression:
Ningĩ rigagĩrĩria ndungata yaku ndĩkeehie mehia ma mwĩĩro o namo; ndũkanareke mehia macio manjathe. Nĩguo ndĩrĩikaraga itarĩ na ũcuuke, na itarĩ na mehia ma kwagarara watho.
14 The words of my mouth, and the soft utterance of my heart, shall come with acceptance, before thee, O Yahweh, my Rock and my Redeemer!
Ciugo cia kanua gakwa na matarania ma ngoro yakwa irogũkenia maitho-inĩ maku, Wee Jehova, o Wee Rwaro rwakwa rwa Ihiga, na Mũkũũri wakwa.
