Psalms 61

1 To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. — By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Ngai, igua kĩrĩro gĩakwa; thikĩrĩria ihooya rĩakwa.

2 From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.

Ndĩragũkaĩra kuuma ituri cia thĩ, ndĩragũkaĩra o ngoro yakwa ĩgĩthiragwo nĩ hinya; ndongoria nginye rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga rũrĩa rũraihu na igũrũ kũngĩra.

3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

Nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ũkoretwo ũrĩ rĩũrĩro rĩakwa, mũthiringo mũraihu na igũrũ wa hinya wa kwĩhitha kuuma kũrĩ thũ.

4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. (Selah)

Ndĩĩriragĩria gũtũũra hema-inĩ yaku nginya tene, na ndĩĩhithage kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩa mathagu maku.

5 For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

Nĩgũkorwo Wee Ngai nĩũiguĩte mĩĩhĩtwa yakwa, nĩũngaĩire igai rĩa andũ arĩa metigĩrĩte rĩĩtwa rĩaku.

6 Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.

Ongerera matukũ ma mũthamaki ma gũtũũra muoyo, mĩaka yake ĩigane ta ya njiarwa nyingĩ.

7 He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint — they keep him.

Aroikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene arĩ mbere ya Ngai nginya tene; tũma wendo na wĩhokeku waku imũgitagĩre.

8 So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!

Hĩndĩ ĩyo ngatũũra nyinaga rwĩmbo rwa kũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku, na hingagie mĩĩhĩtwa yakwa mũthenya o mũthenya.
