< Psalms 94 >

1 Yahweh, God who avenges, God who avenges, shine over us.
Wee Jehova, o Wee Mũrungu ũrĩa ũrĩhanagĩria, Wee Mũrungu ũrĩa ũrĩhanagĩria-rĩ, cangarara.
2 Rise up, judge of the earth, give to the proud what they deserve.
Arahũka, Wee mũtuanĩri ciira wa andũ othe a thĩ; kĩrĩhe andũ arĩa etĩĩi o kĩrĩa kĩmagĩrĩire.
3 How long will the wicked, Yahweh, how long will the wicked rejoice?
Wee Jehova-rĩ, nĩ nginya rĩ andũ arĩa aaganu megũtũũra makenete, nĩ nginya rĩ andũ arĩa aaganu megũtũũra marũũhagia?
4 They pour out their arrogant words; all those who do evil boast.
Maaragia ndeto cia mwĩgaatho; andũ arĩa othe meekaga ũũru, o maiyũrĩtwo nĩ mwĩtĩĩo.
5 They crush your people, Yahweh; they afflict the nation that belongs to you.
Mahehenjaga andũ aku, Wee Jehova, makahinyĩrĩria igai rĩaku.
6 They kill the widow and foreigner who lives in their country, and they murder the fatherless.
Mooragaga mũtumia wa ndigwa, na mũndũ wa kũngĩ; mooragaga ciana iria itarĩ maithe.
7 They say, “Yahweh will not see, the God of Jacob does not take notice of it.”
Moigaga atĩrĩ, “Jehova ndangĩona; Ngai wa Jakubu-rĩ, ndangĩrũmbũiya.”
8 Understand, you stupid people! You fools, when will you ever learn?
Mwĩmenyererei inyuĩ arĩa mwagĩte ũũgĩ mũrĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ; inyuĩ andũ aya akĩĩgu, mũgaakĩũhĩga rĩ?
9 He who made the ear, does he not hear? He who formed the eye, does he not see?
Ũrĩa wombire gũtũ-rĩ, ndangĩigua? Ũcio wombire riitho-rĩ, ndangĩona?
10 He who disciplines the nations, does he not correct? He is the one who gives knowledge to man.
Ũcio ũrũithagia ndũrĩrĩ-rĩ, ndangĩherithania? O ũcio ũrutaga andũ-rĩ, ndarĩ ũmenyo?
11 Yahweh knows the thoughts of men, that they are vapor.
Jehova nĩoĩ meciiria ma mũndũ; ĩĩ, oĩ atĩ meciiria mao nĩ ma tũhũ.
12 Blessed is the one whom you instruct, Yahweh, the one whom you teach from your law.
Wee Jehova, kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa Wee ũtaaraga, o mũndũ ũcio ũrutaga watho waku;
13 You give him rest in times of trouble until a pit is dug for the wicked.
nĩũgaatũma ahoorere matukũ-inĩ ma thĩĩna, o nginya rĩrĩa mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu akenjerwo irima.
14 For Yahweh will not forsake his people or abandon his inheritance.
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova ndagatiganĩria andũ ake; igai rĩake ndarĩ hĩndĩ angĩrĩtirika.
15 For judgment will again be righteous; and all the upright in heart will follow it.
Ũtuanĩri ciira wa kĩhooto nĩũgakwo rĩngĩ igũrũ rĩa ũthingu, nao andũ othe arĩa arũngĩrĩru ngoro maũrũmagĩrĩre.
16 Who will rise up to defend me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the wicked?
Nũũ ũkwarahũka, andũĩrĩre harĩ arĩa aaganu? Nũũ ũkũndũgamĩrĩra, andũĩrĩre harĩ arĩa meekaga ũũru?
17 Unless Yahweh had been my help, I would soon be lying down in the place of silence.
Tiga Jehova aandeithirie-rĩ, ingĩakuire o narua, ngatũũre kũu ũkiri-inĩ.
18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,” Your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, held me up.
Rĩrĩa ndoigire atĩrĩ, “Kũgũrũ gwakwa nĩkũratenderũka,” wendani waku, Wee Jehova, nĩwandiirĩrĩire.
19 When cares within me are many, your consolations make me happy.
Rĩrĩa mĩtangĩko yaingĩhire thĩinĩ wakwa-rĩ, Wee wahooreririe, ũgĩkenia ngoro yakwa.
20 Can a throne of destruction be allied with you, one who creates injustice by statute?
Gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa ungumania-rĩ, hihi no kĩgĩe na ngwatanĩro nawe, o kĩrĩa kĩrehanagĩra mĩnyamaro nĩ ũndũ wa matuĩro ma kĩo?
21 They conspire together to take the life of the righteous and they condemn the innocent to death.
Monganaga hamwe nĩguo mokĩrĩre mũndũ ũrĩa mũthingu, na magatuĩra mũndũ ũtehĩtie ooragwo.
22 But Yahweh has been my high tower, and my God has been the rock of my refuge.
No Jehova nĩwe ũtuĩkĩte kĩirigo gĩakwa kĩa hinya, na Ngai wakwa, o we rwaro rwakwa rwa ihiga harĩa njũragĩra.
23 He will bring on them their own iniquity and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh our God will cut them off.
We nĩakamaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao na amaniine nĩ ũndũ wa waganu wao; Jehova Ngai witũ nĩakamaniina.
