< Thaburi 104 >

1 Gooca Jehova, wee ngoro yakwa. Wee Jehova Ngai wakwa, Wee ũrĩ mũnene mũno; wĩhumbĩte riiri na ũkaru.
I give praise to Yahweh with all my life, Yahweh my God, you are very magnificent; you are clothed with splendor and majesty.
2 Ehumbĩte ũtheri taarĩ nguo; we atambũrũkagia igũrũ taarĩ hema,
You cover yourself with light as with a garment; you spread out the heavens like a tent curtain.
3 na akaara mĩgamba ya tũnyũmba twake twa ngoroba igũrũ rĩa maaĩ. We atũmaga matu matuĩke ngaari yake ya ita, na agakuuo nĩ mathagu ma rũhuho.
You lay the beams of your chambers on the clouds; you make the clouds your chariot; you walk on the wings of the wind.
4 Nĩwe ũtũmaga rũhuho rũtuĩke arekio ake, nacio nĩnĩmbĩ cia mwaki agacitua ndungata ciake.
He makes the winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants.
5 We aahaandire thĩ igũrũ rĩa mĩthingi yayo; ndĩrĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩenyenyeka.
He laid the foundations of the earth, and it will never be moved.
6 Wamĩhumbĩrire na iria rĩrĩa inene taarĩ nguo; maaĩ maikarire makunĩkĩire irĩma.
You covered the earth with water like a garment; the water covered the mountains.
7 No rĩrĩ, wakũũmire maaĩ makĩũra, nacio ngwa ciaku ciagamba magĩĩthara;
Your rebuke made the waters recede; at the sound of your thunderous voice they fled.
8 magĩtherera igũrũ wa irĩma, magĩikũrũka cianda-inĩ, magĩtherera na kũrĩa watuĩte mathiĩ.
The mountains rose, and the valleys spread out into the places that you had appointed for them.
9 Wee nĩwe wekĩrire mũhaka ũrĩa matangĩkĩra; gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaacooka kũhumbĩra thĩ.
You have set a boundary for them that they will not cross; they will not cover the earth again.
10 We atũmaga ithima ciitĩrĩre maaĩ mĩkuru-inĩ; mathereraga gatagatĩ-inĩ ka irĩma.
He made springs flow into the valleys; the streams flow between the mountains.
11 Nĩcio iheaga nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka maaĩ ma kũnyua; nĩkuo njagĩ cia werũ-inĩ inyootoragĩrwo.
They supply water for all the animals of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
12 Nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ ciakaga itara hakuhĩ na maaĩ macio; ciinaga irĩ honge-inĩ cia mĩtĩ.
By the riverbanks the birds build their nests; they sing among the branches.
13 We aitagĩrĩria irĩma maaĩ moimĩte nyũmba-inĩ ciake iria irĩ igũrũ; thĩ nĩĩiganagwo nĩ maciaro ma wĩra wake.
He waters the mountains from his water chambers in the sky. The earth is filled with the fruit of his labor.
14 We atũmaga nyeki ĩkũre nĩ ũndũ wa kũrĩĩo nĩ mahiũ, na agakũria mĩmera ĩrĩa andũ mahaandaga, tĩĩri-inĩ gũgakiumaga irio:
He makes the grass grow for the cattle and plants for man to cultivate so that man may produce food from the earth.
15 ndibei ĩrĩa ĩkenagia ngoro ya mũndũ na maguta ma gũtũma ũthiũ wake ũkenge, o na irio iria ciĩkagĩra ngoro yake hinya.
He makes wine to make man happy, oil to make his face shine, and food to sustain his life.
16 Mĩtĩ ya Jehova nĩyuragĩrio mbura wega, mĩtarakwa ĩyo ya Lebanoni o ĩrĩa aahaandire.
The trees of Yahweh get plenty of rain; the cedars of Lebanon which he planted.
17 Kũu nĩkuo nyoni ciakaga itara ciacio; nayo njũũ, nyũmba yayo ĩrĩ kũu mĩkarakaba-inĩ.
There the birds make their nests. The stork makes the cypress tree her home.
18 Irĩma-inĩ iria ndaaya nĩkuo mbũri cia gĩthaka ciikaraga; mĩatũka-inĩ ya mahiga nĩkuo ikami ciĩhithaga.
The wild goats live on the high mountains; the mountain heights are a refuge for the hyraxes.
19 Mweri nĩguo ũmenyithanagia hĩndĩ ya imera, narĩo riũa nĩrĩmenyaga hĩndĩ yarĩo ya gũthũa.
He appointed the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows its time for setting.
20 Wee nĩwe ũtũmaga kũgĩe nduma, gũgatuĩka ũtukũ, nacio nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka ikoimĩra icemeete.
You make the darkness of the night when all the beasts of the forest come out.
21 Mĩrũũthi ĩrĩa mĩĩthĩ ĩraramaga ĩkĩhĩta, na ĩgacaria irio ciayo kuuma harĩ Mũrungu.
The young lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God.
22 Riũa rĩrathaga, nayo ĩgeethiĩra; ĩthiiaga ĩgakoma imamo-inĩ ciayo.
When the sun rises, they retreat and sleep in their dens.
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ agathiĩ kũruta wĩra wake, agakĩruta wĩra o nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.
Meanwhile, people go out to their work and labor away until the evening.
24 Wee Jehova, kaĩ mawĩra maku nĩ maingĩ-ĩ! Mothe ũmarutĩte na ũũgĩ; nayo thĩ ĩiyũrĩte ciũmbe ciaku.
Yahweh, how many and varied are your works! With wisdom you made them all; the earth overflows with your works.
25 Rĩĩrĩa nĩrĩo iria rĩrĩa inene na rĩariĩ, rĩiyũrĩte ciũmbe irĩ muoyo itangĩtarĩka, iria nene na iria nini.
Over there is the sea, deep and wide, teeming with innumerable creatures, both small and great.
26 Marikabu nĩkuo igeragĩra igĩthiĩ na igĩcooka, o na nyamũ ĩrĩa ĩĩtagwo Leviathani, ĩrĩa wombire nĩguo ĩtũũhagĩre kuo.
The ships travel there, and Leviathan is also there, which you formed to play in the sea.
27 Icio ciothe nĩwe icũthagĩrĩria nĩguo ũcihe irio ciacio hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yagĩrĩire.
All these look to you to give them their food on time.
28 Na rĩrĩa wacihe irio, cioyaga ikarĩa; rĩrĩa watambũrũkia guoko gwaku, ũcihũũnagia na indo njega.
When you give to them, they gather; when you open your hand, they are satisfied.
29 Rĩrĩa wahitha ũthiũ waku, inyiitagwo nĩ guoya; rĩrĩa weheria mĩhũmũ yacio, ikuuaga igaacooka rũkũngũ-inĩ.
When you hide your face, they are troubled; if you take away their breath, they die and return to dust.
30 Rĩrĩa watũma Roho waku, ikagĩa kuo, nawe ũkerũhia maũndũ mothe gũkũ thĩ.
When you send out your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the countryside.
31 Riiri wa Jehova ũrotũũra nginya tene; Jehova arokenagĩra mawĩra make:
May the glory of Yahweh last forever; may Yahweh enjoy his creation.
32 o we ũcio ũroraga thĩ, nayo ĩkainaina, o we ũhutagia irĩma, nacio ikoima ndogo.
He looks down on the earth, and it shakes; he touches the mountains, and they smoke.
33 Ngũtũũra nyinagĩra Jehova matukũ mothe ma muoyo wakwa; ndĩrĩinaga ngĩgoocaga Ngai wakwa hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe ngũtũũra muoyo.
I will sing to Yahweh all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
34 Jehova arokenio nĩ mecũũrania makwa, rĩrĩa ndĩrĩkenaga nĩ ũndũ wake.
May my thoughts be sweet to him; I will rejoice in Yahweh.
35 No rĩrĩ, ehia maroniinwo kuuma thĩ, na andũ arĩa aaganu mathire biũ. Wee ngoro yakwa, gooca Jehova. Goocai Jehova.
May sinners vanish from the earth, and let the wicked be no more. I give praise to Yahweh with all my life. Praise Yahweh.
