1 Cookeria Jehova ngaatho, kaĩrai rĩĩtwa rĩake; menyithiai ndũrĩrĩ maũndũ marĩa ekĩte.
O give thanks unto the Lord; call on his name: make known among the people his deeds.
2 Mũinĩrei, mũmũinĩre mũkĩmũgoocaga; heanai ũhoro wa ciĩko ciake ciothe cia magegania.
Sing unto, him, sing praises unto him: speak of all his wonderful works.
3 Mwĩrahei nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru; ngoro cia arĩa marongoragia Jehova nĩikene.
Glorify yourselves in his holy name: let the heart of those rejoice that seek the Lord.
4 Cũthĩrĩriai Jehova na hinya wake; mathaai ũthiũ wake hĩndĩ ciothe.
Inquire after the Lord and his strength: seek his presence evermore.
5 Ririkanai magegania marĩa ekĩte, na ciama ciake, na matuĩro ma ciira marĩa atuĩte,
Remember his wonderful works which he hath done; his tokens, and the decrees of his mouth;
6 inyuĩ njiaro cia Iburahĩmu ndungata yake, o inyuĩ ciana cia Jakubu, inyuĩ ake athuure.
O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob, his elect.
7 Jehova nĩwe Ngai witũ; matuĩro make ma ciira marĩ thĩ yothe.
He is the Lord our God: over all the earth are his decrees.
8 Nĩaririkanaga kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake nginya tene, nĩkĩo kiugo kĩrĩa aathanire, nĩ ũndũ wa njiarwa ngiri,
He remembereth his covenant for ever, the word which he hath commanded, to the thousandth generation.
9 kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na Iburahĩmu, na noguo mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa eehĩtire harĩ Isaaka.
Which he covenanted with Abraham; and his oath unto Isaac;
10 Nĩagĩĩkĩrire hinya harĩ Jakubu kĩrĩ kĩrĩra gĩake kĩa watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo, agĩgĩĩkĩra hinya harĩ Isiraeli kĩrĩ kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra tene na tene:
And which he established unto Jacob as a statute, unto Israel as an everlasting covenant:
11 “Wee nĩwe ngaahe bũrũri wa Kaanani ũtuĩke igai rĩrĩa ũkaagaya.”
Saying, “Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, as the portion of your inheritance.”
12 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maarĩ o anini magĩtarwo, o anini biũ, na marĩ ageni kuo-rĩ,
When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it;
13 morũũraga kuuma rũrĩrĩ rũmwe nginya rũrĩa rũngĩ, na kuuma ũthamaki-inĩ ũmwe nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ.
And when they wandered from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people:
14 Ndarĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe eetĩkĩririe amanyariire; nĩ ũndũ wao akĩrũithia athamaki, akĩmeera atĩrĩ:
He suffered no man to oppress them; yea, he reproved kings for their sake;
15 “Mũtikanahutie andũ arĩa akwa aitĩrĩrie maguta; mũtikaneke anabii akwa ũũru.”
[Saying, ] “Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm,”—
16 Agĩtũma bũrũri ũcio ũgĩe ngʼaragu, na akĩniina mĩthiithũ yao yothe ya irio;
And he called for a famine over the land; every staff of bread he broke.
17 agĩtũma mũndũ athiĩ mbere yao: nĩwe Jusufu, ũrĩa wendirio arĩ ngombo.
He sent a man before them; for a servant was Joseph sold;
18 Nĩmamũtiihirie magũrũ na bĩngũ, na makĩmuoha ngingo na igera,
They forced into fetters his feet; in iron was his body put:
19 nginya ũrĩa oigĩte ũgĩkinyanĩra, nginya kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩonania atĩ aarĩ mũndũ wa ma.
Until the time that his word came to pass, [when] the saying of the Lord had purified him.
20 Mũthamaki agĩtũmana na akĩmuohorithia, mwathi ũcio wa ndũrĩrĩ akĩmũrekereria.
The king sent and unfettered him; the ruler of people, and let him go free.
21 Akĩmũtua mwathi wa indo cia nyũmba yake, na mũrori wa indo iria ciothe aarĩ nacio,
He appointed him lord of his house, and ruler of all his possession:
22 nĩguo ataarage anene ake o ũrĩa angĩonire kwagĩrĩire, na arutage athuuri ake ũũgĩ.
That he might bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his ancients wisdom.
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Isiraeli agĩthiĩ Misiri; Jakubu agĩtũũra arĩ mũgeni bũrũri-inĩ ũcio wa Hamu.
Then came Israel into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 Jehova agĩtũma andũ ake maciarane mũno; agĩtũma maingĩhe mũno gũkĩra thũ ciao,
And he increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
25 iria aagarũrire ngoro ciao agĩtũma ithũũre andũ ake, agĩtũma ithugundĩre ndungata ciake ũũru.
He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilely with his servants.
26 Aatũmire Musa ndungata yake, na Harũni, ũrĩa aathurĩte.
He sent Moses his servant, Aaron also whom he had made choice of.
27 Nao makĩringa ciama ciake gatagatĩ-inĩ kao, magĩĩka magegania make bũrũri-inĩ wa Hamu.
They displayed among them his effective signs, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 Agĩtũma kũgĩe nduma naguo bũrũri ũcio ũgĩtumana, tondũ-rĩ, githĩ ti ciugo ciake maaremeire?
He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
29 Akĩgarũra maaĩ mao magĩtuĩka thakame, agĩtũma thamaki ciao ikue.
He changed their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30 Bũrũri wao ũkĩiyũra ciũra, iria ciatoonyire nginya tũnyũmba twa toro twa anene ao.
Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the very chambers of their kings.
31 Aaririe, gũgĩũka mĩrumbĩ ya ngi, na rwagĩ rũkĩiyũra bũrũri wao wothe.
He spoke, and there came various wild beasts, lice also within all their boundary.
32 Akĩgarũra mbura yao ĩgĩtuĩka ya mbembe, na heni ikĩhenũka bũrũri-inĩ wao wothe;
He gave them as their rain hail, and flames of fire in their land.
33 akĩrũnda mĩthabibũ yao, na mĩkũyũ, na akiunanga mĩtĩ ya bũrũri wao.
And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees within their boundary.
34 Aaririe, nacio ngigĩ igĩũka, na ndaahi itangĩtarĩka;
He spoke, and the locusts came, and crickets, and that without number;
35 ikĩrĩa kĩndũ gĩothe kĩarĩ kĩĩruru bũrũri-inĩ wao, na ikĩrĩa maciaro ma tĩĩri wao.
And they ate up all the herbs in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 Ningĩ akĩũraga marigithathi mothe ma bũrũri wao, maciaro ma mbere ma ũciari wao wothe.
And he smote all the first-born in their land, the first of all their strength.
37 Nĩaarutire Isiraeli makiuma kuo, makuuĩte betha na thahabu, na gatagatĩ ka mĩhĩrĩga yao hatiarĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe warĩ mũhinyaru.
And he brought them forth with silver and gold: and there was not one that stumbled among his tribes.
38 Andũ a Misiri nĩmakenire moima kuo, tondũ nĩmanyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya wa andũ acio a Isiraeli.
Egypt rejoiced when they departed; for the dread of them was fallen upon them.
39 Nĩatambũrũkirie itu rĩmahumbagĩre, o na mwaki wa kũmamũrĩkagĩra ũtukũ.
He spread out a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light in the night.
40 Metirie irio, nake akĩmarehere tũmakia-arũme, na akĩmahũũnia na irio cia igũrũ.
The people asked, and he brought quails, and with heavenly bread he satisfied them.
41 Aatũranirie rwaro rwa ihiga, namo maaĩ magĩtothoka; magĩgĩtherera ta rũũĩ kũu werũ-inĩ.
He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out: they ran in the dry places like a river.
42 Nĩgũkorwo nĩaririkanire kĩĩranĩro gĩake gĩtheru kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na ndungata yake Iburahĩmu.
For he remembered his holy word given to Abraham his servant.
43 Nĩaarutire andũ ake makiuma kũu makenete, akĩruta acio ake athuure makĩanagĩrĩra nĩ gũkena;
And he brought forth his people with gladness, with joyful song his elect.
44 akĩmahe mabũrũri ma ndũrĩrĩ, nao magĩtuĩka a kũgaya kĩrĩa andũ angĩ maanogeire,
And he gave them the lands of nations; and the labor of people they obtained as an inheritance:
45 nĩguo marũmagie mataaro make, na maathĩkagĩre mawatho make. Goocai Jehova.
So that they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Hallelujah.
