< Psalms 54 >

1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.
Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Ngai, honokia nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku; ndĩhĩria na hinya waku.
2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
Wee Ngai, igua ihooya rĩakwa; thikĩrĩria ciugo cia kanua gakwa.
3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)
Andũ ageni nĩmanjũkĩrĩire; nao andũ matarĩ tha nĩmaracaria muoyo wakwa, o andũ acio matarũmbũyagia Ngai.
4 Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,
Ti-itherũ Ngai nĩwe ũteithio wakwa; Mwathani nĩwe ũndiiragĩrĩra.
5 Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.
Cookereria andũ arĩa manjambagia ũũru wao; Wee maniine nĩ ũndũ wa wĩhokeku waku.
6 With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,
Nĩngũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa kwĩyendera; nĩngũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku, Wee Jehova, tondũ nĩ rĩega.
7 For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!
Nĩgũkorwo nĩahonoketie mathĩĩna-inĩ makwa mothe, na maitho makwa nĩmeyoneire gũtoorio gwa thũ ciakwa.
