< Psalms 103 >

1 [I tell] myself that I should praise Yahweh. I will praise him [MTY] with all of my inner being, [because] he [MTY] is holy.
Thaburi ya Daudi Gooca Jehova, wee ngoro yakwa; kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa, gooca rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru.
2 [I tell] myself that I should praise Yahweh and never forget all the kind things he has done for me:
Gooca Jehova, wee ngoro yakwa, na ndũkariganĩrwo nĩ maũndũ mothe marĩa aanagwĩka:
3 He forgives all my sins, and he heals me from all my diseases/sicknesses;
o ũrĩa ũkũrekagĩra mehia maku mothe, na agakũhonia mĩrimũ yaku yothe,
4 he keeps me from dying [MTY], and blesses me by faithfully loving me and acting mercifully to me.
ũrĩa ũkũũraga muoyo waku kuuma irima rĩa gĩkuũ, na agakũhumba wendo na tha taarĩ thũmbĩ ya ũnene,
5 He gives me good things during my entire life. He makes me feel young and strong like eagles.
o we ũkũhũũnagia na maũndũ mega nĩgeetha waanake waku werũhagio o ta wa nderi.
6 Yahweh judges justly and (vindicates/does what is right for) all those who have been treated unfairly.
Jehova ekaga maũndũ ma ũthingu, na akarũgamĩrĩra kĩhooto kũrĩ arĩa othe ahinyĩrĩrie.
7 [Long ago] he revealed to Moses what he planned to do; he showed to the [ancestors of us] Israeli people the mighty things that he was able to do.
Nĩamenyithirie Musa njĩra ciake, nacio ciĩko ciake agĩcimenyithia andũ a Isiraeli:
8 Yahweh acts mercifully and kindly; he does not quickly (get angry/punish us) [when we sin]; he is always [showing us that he] faithfully loves us.
Jehova nĩ mũigua tha na nĩ mũtugi, ndahiũhaga kũrakara, na nĩaiyũirwo nĩ wendo mũingĩ.
9 He will not keep rebuking us, and he will not remain angry forever.
We ndaciirithanagia hĩndĩ ciothe, o na kana agatũũra arakarĩte nginya tene;
10 He punishes us for our sins, but he does not punish us [severely] as we deserve [DOU]!
Ndatũherithagia ta ũrĩa mehia maitũ magĩrĩirwo, o na kana agatũrĩhia kũringana na waganu witũ ũrĩa ũigana.
11 The skies are very high above the earth, and Yahweh’s faithful love for all those who revere him is just as great.
O ta ũrĩa igũrũ rĩraihanĩrĩirie na thĩ, ũguo no taguo wendo wake ũrĩ mũnene kũrĩ arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte;
12 He has taken away [the guilt for] [MTY] our sins, taking it as far from us as the east is from the west.
o ta ũrĩa irathĩro kũraihanĩrĩirie na ithũĩro-rĩ, ũguo no taguo atwehereirie mehia maitũ magatũraihĩrĩria.
13 Just like parents act mercifully toward their children, Yahweh is kind to those who revere him.
O ta ũrĩa mũthuuri aiguagĩra ciana ciake tha, ũguo no taguo Jehova aiguagĩra tha arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte;
14 He knows what our bodies are like; he remembers that [he created us from] dirt, and so we quickly fail [to do what pleases him] [MET].
nĩgũkorwo we nĩoĩ ũrĩa tuombirwo, nĩaririkanaga atĩ ithuĩ tũrĩ o rũkũngũ.
15 We humans do not live forever [SIM]; we are like grass [SIM] [that withers and dies]. We are like wild flowers: They bloom [for a short while],
Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ-rĩ, matukũ make mahaana o ta nyeki, we acanũkaga o ta ihũa rĩa gĩthaka;
16 but then the [hot] wind blows over them, and they disappear; no one sees them again.
rĩhurutagwo nĩ rũhuho rĩkehera, na harĩa rĩraarĩ rĩtingĩcooka kuonwo rĩngĩ.
17 But Yahweh will faithfully keep loving forever all those who revere him. He will act fairly to our children and to their children;
No rĩrĩ, kuuma tene nginya tene wendo wa Jehova ũtũũraga harĩ arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte, naguo ũthingu wake ũgakinyĩra ciana cia ciana ciao,
18 he will act that way to all those who obey the agreement he made with them [to bless them if they did what he told them to do], to all those who obey what he has commanded.
o acio mamenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake, na makaririkanaga gwathĩkĩra watho wake.
19 Yahweh made/caused the heavens to be the place where he rules [MTY]; from there he rules over everything.
Jehova nĩahaandĩte gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kũu igũrũ, na ũthamaki wake wathaga maũndũ mothe.
20 You angels who belong to Yahweh, praise him! You are powerful creatures/beings who do what he tells you to do; you obey what he commands.
Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ araika ake, inyuĩ njamba irĩ hinya, inyuĩ mwĩkaga ũrĩa oigĩte, o inyuĩ mwathĩkagĩra kiugo gĩake.
21 Praise Yahweh, you armies/thousands of angels who serve him and do what he desires!
Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ mbũtũ ciake ciothe cia igũrũ, o inyuĩ ndungata ciake iria ciĩkaga ũrĩa endaga.
22 All you things that Yahweh has created, praise him; praise him in every place where he rules, everywhere! And I [also] will praise Yahweh!
Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ mawĩra make mothe mũrĩ kũrĩa guothe athamakaga. Wee ngoro yakwa, gooca Jehova.
