< Psalms 135 >

1 Praise Yahweh. Praise the name of Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
Goocai Jehova. Goocai rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova; inyuĩ ndungata cia Jehova-rĩ, mũgoocei,
2 you who stand in Yahweh's house, in the courtyards of the house of our God.
inyuĩ mũtungataga thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova, o inyuĩ mũrũgamaga nja-inĩ cia nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
3 Praise Yahweh, for he is good; sing praises to his name, for it is pleasant to do so.
Goocai Jehova, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩ mwega; inai mũgooce rĩĩtwa rĩake, nĩgũkorwo nĩ rĩega.
4 For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his possession.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩethuurĩire Jakubu atuĩke wake, agathuura Isiraeli atuĩke igai rĩake kĩũmbe.
5 I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods.
Niĩ nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Jehova nĩ mũnene, atĩ Mwathani witũ nĩ mũnene gũkĩra ngai ciothe.
6 Whatever Yahweh desires, he does in heaven, on earth, in the seas and all the ocean depths.
Jehova ekaga ũrĩa wothe ekwenda, kũu igũrũ na gũkũ thĩ, o na kũu iria-inĩ o na kũrĩa guothe kũriku mũno.
7 He brings the clouds from far away, making lightning bolts accompany the rain and bringing the wind out of his storehouse.
Nĩwe ũtũmaga matu mambate kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ; nĩwe ũtũmaga kũgĩe heni irehanĩte na mbura, na akarehe rũhuho kuuma mĩthithũ-inĩ yake.
8 He killed the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animals.
Nĩwe waringire marigithathi ma Misiri, marigithathi ma andũ na ma nyamũ.
9 He sent signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
Wee Misiri, nĩwe watũmire thĩinĩ waku kũringwo ciama na morirũ, agĩũkĩrĩra Firaũni na ndungata ciake ciothe.
10 He attacked many nations and killed mighty kings,
Nĩwe waringire ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ na akĩũraga athamaki maarĩ hinya:
11 Sihon king of the Amorites and Og king of Bashan and all the kingdoms of Canaan.
nĩo Sihoni mũthamaki wa Aamori, na Ogu mũthamaki wa Bashani, o na athamaki othe a Kaanani;
12 He gave us their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.
akĩheana bũrũri wao ũtuĩke igai, ũtuĩke igai kũrĩ andũ ake a Isiraeli.
13 Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, endures throughout all generations.
Rĩĩtwa rĩaku, Wee Jehova, rĩtũũraga nginya tene, ngumo yaku, Wee Jehova, ĩgakinyĩra njiarwa na njiarwa.
14 For Yahweh defends his people and has compassion on his servants.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩagaciirĩrĩra andũ ake, na aiguĩre ndungata ciake tha.
15 The nations' idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
Mĩhianano ya ndũrĩrĩ ĩthondeketwo na betha na thahabu, o wĩra wa moko ma andũ.
16 Those idols have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
Nĩĩrĩ tũnua, no ndĩaragia, nĩĩrĩ maitho, no ndĩonaga;
17 they have ears, but they do not hear, nor is there breath in their mouths.
nĩĩrĩ matũ, no ndĩiguaga, o na ndĩrĩ mĩhũmũ tũnua-inĩ twayo.
18 Those who make them are like them, as is everyone who trusts in them.
Andũ arĩa mamĩthondekaga makaahaana o tayo, na noguo arĩa othe mamĩĩhokaga makaahaana.
19 Descendants of Israel, bless Yahweh; descendants of Aaron, bless Yahweh.
Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Isiraeli, goocai Jehova; Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Harũni, goocai Jehova;
20 Descendants of Levi, bless Yahweh; you who honor Yahweh, bless Yahweh.
Inyuĩ nyũmba ya Lawi, goocai Jehova; inyuĩ arĩa mũmwĩtigĩrĩte, goocai Jehova.
21 Blessed be Yahweh in Zion, he who lives in Jerusalem. Praise Yahweh.
Jehova arogoocwo kuuma Zayuni, o we ũtũũraga kũu Jerusalemu. Goocai Jehova.
