< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.
Ti ithuĩ, Wee Jehova, ti ithuĩ twagĩrĩire kũgoocwo, no goocithia rĩĩtwa rĩaku, tondũ wa wendo na wĩhokeku waku.
2 Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God.
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga ndũrĩrĩ ciũrie atĩrĩ, “Ngai wao akĩrĩ ha?”
3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.
Ngai witũ arĩ o igũrũ; we ekaga o ũrĩa endaga.
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,
No mĩhianano yao nĩ betha na thahabu, wĩra ũthondeketwo na moko ma andũ.
5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
Nĩĩrĩ tũnua, no ndĩaragia, nĩĩrĩ maitho, no ndĩonaga;
6 Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not,
nĩĩrĩ matũ, no ndĩiguaga, nĩĩrĩ na maniũrũ, no ndĩiguaga mũnungo;
7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;
nĩĩrĩ moko, no ndĩngĩhambata kĩndũ, nĩĩrĩ magũrũ, no ndĩngĩĩtwara; o na nĩĩrĩ mĩmero, no ndĩngĩnyuria.
8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
Andũ arĩa mamĩthondekaga makaahaana o tayo, na noguo arĩa othe mamĩĩhokaga makaahaana.
9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
Wee nyũmba ya Isiraeli, wĩhokage Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao o na ngo yao.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
Wee nyũmba ya Harũni, wĩhokage Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao o na ngo yao.
11 Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
Inyuĩ arĩa mũmwĩtigĩrĩte, mwĩhokagei Jehova: we nĩwe ũteithio wao na ngo yao.
12 Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron,
Jehova nĩatũririkanĩte na nĩegũtũrathima: Nĩekũrathima nyũmba ya Isiraeli, nĩekũrathima nyũmba ya Harũni,
13 He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.
nĩekũrathima arĩa metigĩrĩte Jehova, anini na anene o ũndũ ũmwe.
14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.
Jehova arotũma mũingĩhe, inyuĩ na ciana cianyu.
15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
Mũrorathimwo nĩ Jehova, Mũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ.
16 The heavens — the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,
Kũu igũrũ mũno nĩ kwa Jehova, no thĩ nĩamĩheanĩte kũrĩ andũ.
17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.
Andũ arĩa akuũ matigoocaga Jehova, acio maikũrũkaga kũu ũkiri-inĩ;
18 And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah!
nĩ ithuĩ tũrĩkumagia Jehova, kuuma rĩu nginya tene na tene. Goocai Jehova.
