Psalms 80
1 To the Overseer. — 'On the Lilies.' A testimony of Asaph. — A Psalm. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, Leading Joseph as a flock, Inhabiting the cherubs — shine forth,
Thaburi ya Asafu Wee Mũrĩithi wa Isiraeli, tũigue, o Wee ũtongoragia Jusufu ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi atongoragia rũũru; Wee ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gatagatĩ ka makerubi-rĩ, cangarara
2 Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Thy might, and come for our salvation.
ũrĩ mbere ya Efiraimu, na Benjamini, na Manase. Arahũra ũhoti waku, ũũke ũtũhonokie.
3 O God, cause us to turn back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
Wee Ngai-rĩ, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
4 Jehovah, God of Hosts, till when? Thou hast burned against the prayer of Thy people.
Wee Jehova Ngai mwene hinya wothe, marakara maku megũtooga nginya rĩ ũgĩũkĩrĩra mahooya ma andũ aku?
5 Thou hast caused them to eat bread of tears, And causest them to drink With tears a third time.
Nĩũmahũũnĩtie na irio cia maithori; ũtũmĩte manyue maithori maiyũrĩte mbakũri riita.
6 Thou makest us a strife to our neighbours, And our enemies mock at it.
Ũtũtuĩte kĩndũ gĩa kũrũagĩrwo nĩ arĩa tũriganĩtie nao, nacio thũ ciitũ igatũnyũrũria.
7 God of Hosts, turn us back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
Wee Ngai-Mwene-Hinya-Wothe-rĩ, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
8 A vine out of Egypt Thou dost bring, Thou dost cast out nations, and plantest it.
Wareehire mũthabibũ kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri; warutũrũrire ndũrĩrĩ ũkĩũhaanda arĩ guo.
9 Thou hast looked before it, and dost root it, And it filleth the land,
Nĩwaũthereirie mũgũnda, naguo ũkĩgwata, na ũkĩiyũra bũrũri wothe.
10 Covered have been hills [with] its shadow, And its boughs [are] cedars of God.
Irĩma nĩciahumbĩrirwo nĩ kĩĩruru kĩaguo, nayo mĩtarakwa ĩrĩa mĩnene ĩkĩhumbĩrwo nĩ honge ciaguo.
11 It sendeth forth its branches unto the sea, And unto the river its sucklings.
Watambũrũkirie honge ciaguo o nginya Iria-inĩ rĩrĩa Inene, na thuuna ciaguo ũgĩcikinyia o nginya Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Farati.
12 Why hast Thou broken down its hedges, And all passing by the way have plucked it?
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũmomore njirigo ciaguo, ũgagĩtũma ehĩtũkĩri othe matuage thabibũ ciaguo?
13 A boar out of the forest doth waste it, And a wild beast of the fields consumeth it.
Ũrangarangagwo nĩ ngũrwe cia gĩthaka, na ũkarĩĩo nĩ nyamũ cia werũ-inĩ.
14 God of Hosts, turn back, we beseech Thee, Look from heaven, and see, and inspect this vine,
Wee Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, tũcookerere! Rora ũrĩ igũrũ wone! Rũmbũiya mũthabibũ ũyũ,
15 And the root that Thy right hand planted, And the branch Thou madest strong for Thee,
mũri ũrĩa guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo kwahaandire, mũriũ ũrĩa wee mwene wĩrereire.
16 Burnt with fire — cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face they perish.
Mũthabibũ waku nĩũtemetwo, ũgacinwo na mwaki; thũ ciaku irothira nĩ ũndũ wa irũithia rĩaku.
17 Let Thy hand be on the man of Thy right hand, On the son of man Thou hast strengthened for Thyself.
Guoko gwaku kũroikara na mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo, ũcio mũrũ wa mũndũ wĩrereire wee mwene.
18 And we do not go back from Thee, Thou dost revive us, and in Thy name we call.
No ithuĩ-rĩ, tũtigatigana nawe o rĩ; tũrurumũkie na nĩtũrĩkayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
19 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved!
Wee Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
