< Thaburi 103 >
1 Thaburi ya Daudi Gooca Jehova, wee ngoro yakwa; kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa, gooca rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru.
“Of David.” Bless, O my soul, the Lord, and all that is within me, his holy name.
2 Gooca Jehova, wee ngoro yakwa, na ndũkariganĩrwo nĩ maũndũ mothe marĩa aanagwĩka:
Bless, O my soul, the Lord, and forget not all his benefits:
3 o ũrĩa ũkũrekagĩra mehia maku mothe, na agakũhonia mĩrimũ yaku yothe,
Who forgiveth all thy iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 ũrĩa ũkũũraga muoyo waku kuuma irima rĩa gĩkuũ, na agakũhumba wendo na tha taarĩ thũmbĩ ya ũnene,
Who redeemeth from the pit thy life; who crowneth thee with kindness and mercies;
5 o we ũkũhũũnagia na maũndũ mega nĩgeetha waanake waku werũhagio o ta wa nderi.
Who satisfieth with happiness thy spirit, so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's [plumage].
6 Jehova ekaga maũndũ ma ũthingu, na akarũgamĩrĩra kĩhooto kũrĩ arĩa othe ahinyĩrĩrie.
The Lord executeth righteousness, and justice for all that are oppressed.
7 Nĩamenyithirie Musa njĩra ciake, nacio ciĩko ciake agĩcimenyithia andũ a Isiraeli:
He made known his ways unto Moses, unto the children of Israel his acts.
8 Jehova nĩ mũigua tha na nĩ mũtugi, ndahiũhaga kũrakara, na nĩaiyũirwo nĩ wendo mũingĩ.
Merciful and gracious is the Lord, long-suffering and abundant in kindness.
9 We ndaciirithanagia hĩndĩ ciothe, o na kana agatũũra arakarĩte nginya tene;
Not for all eternity will he contend; nor will he for ever retain his anger.
10 Ndatũherithagia ta ũrĩa mehia maitũ magĩrĩirwo, o na kana agatũrĩhia kũringana na waganu witũ ũrĩa ũigana.
Not in accordance with our sins hath he dealt with us; nor according to our iniquities hath he requited us.
11 O ta ũrĩa igũrũ rĩraihanĩrĩirie na thĩ, ũguo no taguo wendo wake ũrĩ mũnene kũrĩ arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte;
For as high as heaven is above the earth, so mighty is his kindness toward those that fear him.
12 o ta ũrĩa irathĩro kũraihanĩrĩirie na ithũĩro-rĩ, ũguo no taguo atwehereirie mehia maitũ magatũraihĩrĩria.
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed from us our transgressions.
13 O ta ũrĩa mũthuuri aiguagĩra ciana ciake tha, ũguo no taguo Jehova aiguagĩra tha arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte;
As a father hath mercy on his children, so hath the Lord mercy on those that fear him.
14 nĩgũkorwo we nĩoĩ ũrĩa tuombirwo, nĩaririkanaga atĩ ithuĩ tũrĩ o rũkũngũ.
For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15 Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ-rĩ, matukũ make mahaana o ta nyeki, we acanũkaga o ta ihũa rĩa gĩthaka;
As for man, like the grass are his days: as the blossom of the field, so doth he bloom.
16 rĩhurutagwo nĩ rũhuho rĩkehera, na harĩa rĩraarĩ rĩtingĩcooka kuonwo rĩngĩ.
When a wind but passeth over it, it is gone, and its place will recognize it no more.
17 No rĩrĩ, kuuma tene nginya tene wendo wa Jehova ũtũũraga harĩ arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte, naguo ũthingu wake ũgakinyĩra ciana cia ciana ciao,
But the kindness of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting over those that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children,
18 o acio mamenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake, na makaririkanaga gwathĩkĩra watho wake.
To such as keep his covenant, and to those who remember his precepts to execute them.
19 Jehova nĩahaandĩte gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kũu igũrũ, na ũthamaki wake wathaga maũndũ mothe.
The Lord hath established in the heavens his throne; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20 Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ araika ake, inyuĩ njamba irĩ hinya, inyuĩ mwĩkaga ũrĩa oigĩte, o inyuĩ mwathĩkagĩra kiugo gĩake.
Bless the Lord, ye his angels, mighty in strength, that execute his word, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21 Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ mbũtũ ciake ciothe cia igũrũ, o inyuĩ ndungata ciake iria ciĩkaga ũrĩa endaga.
Bless ye the Lord, all his hosts, ye his ministers, that execute his will.
22 Goocai Jehova, inyuĩ mawĩra make mothe mũrĩ kũrĩa guothe athamakaga. Wee ngoro yakwa, gooca Jehova.
Bless the Lord, all his works, in all the places of his dominion; bless, O my soul, the Lord.
