Psalms 69
1 To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, [A Psalm] of David. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in to [my] soul.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Ngai-rĩ, honokia, nĩgũkorwo maaĩ maanginyĩte o ngingo.
2 I sink in deep mire, where [there is] no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
Ndĩratoonyerera mũtondo-inĩ mũriku, handũ hatarĩ na ha gũkinyithia kũgũrũ. Nginyĩte maaĩ-inĩ harĩa hariku; mũiyũro wa maaĩ nĩũhumbĩkanĩtie.
3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: my eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Nĩnogete mũno nĩ gũkaya ndeithio; mũmero wakwa nĩ mũngʼaru. Maitho makwa nĩmorĩtwo nĩ hinya nĩgũcũthĩrĩria Ngai wakwa.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: they that would destroy me, [being] my enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored [that] which I took not away.
Andũ arĩa maathũire hatarĩ gĩtũmi nĩ aingĩ gũkĩra njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wakwa; thũ ciakwa iria iithũire hatarĩ gĩtũmi nĩ nyingĩ, o icio injaragia iniine. Hatagĩrĩrio njookie kĩndũ itaiyĩte.
5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.
Wee Ngai nĩũũĩ ũrimũ wakwa; mahĩtia makwa matingĩhithĩka harĩwe.
6 Let not them that wait on thee, O LORD God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
Andũ arĩa makwĩhokete, maroaga gũconorithio nĩ ũndũ wakwa, Wee Mwathani, Jehova Mwene-Hinya-wothe; arĩa makũrongoragia maroaga kũnyararwo nĩ ũndũ wakwa, Wee Ngai wa Isiraeli.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩngirĩrĩirie kũmenwo nĩ ũndũ waku, naguo ũthiũ wakwa nĩũhumbĩtwo thoni.
8 I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to my mother's children.
Nduĩkĩte ta mũgeni harĩ ariũ a baba, ngatuĩka ta mũndũ wa kũngĩ harĩ ariũ a maitũ;
9 For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee have fallen upon me.
kĩyo kĩrĩa ndĩ nakĩo kĩa nyũmba yaku nĩkĩo kĩrandĩa, irumi cia arĩa makũrumaga nĩ niĩ igũĩrĩire.
10 When I wept, [and chastened] my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
Rĩrĩa ngũrĩra na ngehinga kũrĩa irio, no nginya ngirĩrĩrie kũnyũrũrio;
11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
rĩrĩa ndehumba nguo ya ikũnia, andũ no gũũthekerera.
12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I [was] the song of the drunkards.
Andũ arĩa maikaraga kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra nĩ niĩ manyũrũragia, na nduĩkĩte rwĩmbo rwa arĩĩu.
13 But as for me, my prayer [is] to thee, O LORD, [in] an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
Wee Jehova, nĩndakũhooya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ya gwĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩwe; Wee Ngai, nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku mũnene, ũnjĩtĩke na ũhonokio waku wa ma.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Honokia ũndute mũtondo-inĩ, ndũkareke ndoonyerere; ndeithũra kuuma kũrĩ arĩa maathũire, ũndute kuuma maaĩ-inĩ marĩa mariku.
15 Let not the water-flood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
Ndũkareke mũiyũro wa maaĩ ũũhubĩkanie, kana merio nĩ kũrĩa kũriku, o na kana ndumĩrio kanua nĩ irima rĩa gĩkuũ.
16 Hear me, O LORD; for thy loving-kindness [is] good: turn to me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Wee Jehova, njĩtĩka nĩ ũndũ wa wega wa wendo waku; nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciaku nyingĩ wĩhũgũre ũnjookerere.
17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
Ndũkahithe ndungata yaku ũthiũ waku; njĩtĩka narua, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ thĩĩna-inĩ.
18 Draw nigh to my soul, [and] redeem it: deliver me because of my enemies.
Ũka hakuhĩ ũndeithũre; honokia kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciakwa.
19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor: my adversaries [are] all before thee.
We nĩũũĩ ũrĩa nyũrũrĩtio, na ngaconorithio na ngahumbwo thoni; thũ ciakwa ciothe irĩ mbere yaku.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked [for some] to take pity, but [there was] none; and for comforters, but I found none.
Kũnyũrũrio nĩ gũũthuthĩte ngoro ngatigwo itarĩ na mwĩhoko; ndeetereire nyone wa kũnjiguĩra tha, no ndiigana kũmuona, ngĩeterera nyone andũ a kũũhooreria, no ndiamonire.
21 They gave me also gall for my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Maanjĩkĩrĩire maaĩ ma nyongo irio-inĩ ciakwa, na ndanyoota makĩĩhe thiki nyue.
22 Let their table become a snare before them: and [that which should have been] for [their] welfare, [let it become] a trap.
Metha ĩrĩa maarĩirwo ĩrotuĩka mũtego; ĩrotuĩka ihũũra o na mũtego wa kũmagwatia.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
Maitho mao marogĩa nduma matige gũcooka kuona, nayo mĩgongo yao ĩrohocerera nginya tene.
24 Pour out thy indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Maitũrũrĩre mangʼũrĩ maku; makinyĩrie marakara maku mahiũ.
25 Let their habitation be desolate; [and] let none dwell in their tents.
Mĩciĩ yao ĩrokira ihooru; kũroaga mũndũ wa gũtũũra hema-inĩ ciao.
26 For they persecute [him] whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
Nĩgũkorwo manyariiraga arĩa wee ũgurarĩtie, na makaaria ũhoro wa ruo rwa arĩa ũtiihĩtie.
27 Add iniquity to their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
Mathitangĩre o ngero thuutha wa ĩrĩa ĩngĩ; ndũkanareke magatoonya ũhonokanio-inĩ waku.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
Marothario ibuku-inĩ rĩa muoyo, mage kwandĩkwo mũtaratara-inĩ wa andũ arĩa athingu.
29 But I [am] poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
Ndĩ na ruo na ngathĩĩnĩka; Wee Ngai kĩĩhonokie na ũngitĩre.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
Nĩngũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai na rwĩmbo, na ndĩmũtũũgĩrie ngĩmũcookagĩria ngaatho.
31 [This] also shall please the LORD better than an ox [or] bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
Naguo ũndũ ũcio nĩũgũgĩkenia Jehova gũkĩra kũmũhe ndegwa, na gũkĩra ndegwa nene ĩrĩ na hĩa na mahũngũ.
32 The humble shall see [this], [and] be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.
Andũ arĩa athĩĩni mona ũguo nĩmagakena; inyuĩ arĩa mũrongoragia Ngai, ngoro cianyu iroarahũka!
33 For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.
Jehova nĩathikagĩrĩria arĩa abatari, na ndangĩnyarara andũ ake moohetwo.
34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
Igũrũ na thĩ nĩimũgooce, o na maria marĩa manene na kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩthiiagĩra thĩinĩ wamo,
35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.
nĩgũkorwo Ngai nĩakahonokia Zayuni, na aake matũũra marĩa manene ma Juda rĩngĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ nĩmagatũũra kuo na makwĩgwatĩre;
36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
ciana cia ndungata ciake nĩigakũgaya, nao arĩa mendete rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩmagatũũra kuo.
