Psalms 20

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. May Yahweh answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,

Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova arogwĩtĩka rĩrĩa ũrĩ mĩnyamaro-inĩ; rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai wa Jakubu rĩrokũgitĩra.

2 send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,

Arokũrehere ũteithio kuuma handũ harĩa hake haamũre, na agũtiirĩrĩre arĩ kũu Zayuni.

3 remember all your offerings, and accept your burned sacrifice. (Selah)

Aroririkana magongona maku mothe, na etĩkĩre maruta maku ma njino.

4 May he grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

Arokũhe maũndũ marĩa ngoro yaku ĩĩrirĩirie, na atũme mĩbango yaku yothe ĩgaacĩre.

5 We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Yahweh grant all your requests.

Rĩrĩa ũkaahootana nĩtũkoigĩrĩria na gĩkeno, na tuoye bendera ciitũ na igũrũ nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai witũ. Jehova arokũhingĩria maũndũ marĩa mothe ũmũhooete.

6 Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

Rĩu nĩmenyete atĩ Jehova nĩahonokagia ũrĩa wake mũitĩrĩrie maguta; nĩamwĩtĩkaga arĩ kũu igũrũ rĩake rĩamũre, arĩ na ũhoti wa kũhonokania ũrĩa ũrĩ guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust in the name of Yahweh our God.

Andũ amwe mehokaga ngaari cia ita, na angĩ makehoka mbarathi, no ithuĩ twĩhokaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai witũ.

8 They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

Makurumaga makagũa thĩ, no ithuĩ tũrũgamaga tũkehaanda.

9 Save, Yahweh! Let the King answer us when we call!

Wee Jehova, honokia mũthamaki! Twĩtĩkage rĩrĩa twagũkaĩra!
