1 Cookeria Jehova ngaatho, kaĩrai rĩĩtwa rĩake; menyithiai ndũrĩrĩ maũndũ marĩa ekĩte.
O give thanks unto the LORD; Call upon his name; Make known his deeds among the people!
2 Mũinĩrei, mũmũinĩre mũkĩmũgoocaga; heanai ũhoro wa ciĩko ciake ciothe cia magegania.
Sing unto him; sing psalms unto him; Tell ye of all his wondrous works!
3 Mwĩrahei nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru; ngoro cia arĩa marongoragia Jehova nĩikene.
Glory ye in his holy name; Let the hearts of them that seek the LORD rejoice!
4 Cũthĩrĩriai Jehova na hinya wake; mathaai ũthiũ wake hĩndĩ ciothe.
Seek the LORD, and his majesty; Seek his face continually!
5 Ririkanai magegania marĩa ekĩte, na ciama ciake, na matuĩro ma ciira marĩa atuĩte,
Remember the wonders he hath wrought, His miracles and the judgments of his mouth,
6 inyuĩ njiaro cia Iburahĩmu ndungata yake, o inyuĩ ciana cia Jakubu, inyuĩ ake athuure.
Ye offspring of Abraham his servant, Ye children of Jacob his chosen!
7 Jehova nĩwe Ngai witũ; matuĩro make ma ciira marĩ thĩ yothe.
Jehovah, he is our God, His judgments are over all the earth.
8 Nĩaririkanaga kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake nginya tene, nĩkĩo kiugo kĩrĩa aathanire, nĩ ũndũ wa njiarwa ngiri,
He remembereth his covenant for ever, And the promise to a thousand generations;
9 kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire na Iburahĩmu, na noguo mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa eehĩtire harĩ Isaaka.
The covenant which he made with Abraham, And the oath which he gave to Isaac;
10 Nĩagĩĩkĩrire hinya harĩ Jakubu kĩrĩ kĩrĩra gĩake kĩa watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo, agĩgĩĩkĩra hinya harĩ Isiraeli kĩrĩ kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra tene na tene:
Which he confirmed to Jacob for a decree, And to Israel for an everlasting covenant.
11 “Wee nĩwe ngaahe bũrũri wa Kaanani ũtuĩke igai rĩrĩa ũkaagaya.”
“To thee,” said he, “will I give the land of Canaan For the lot of your inheritance.”
12 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maarĩ o anini magĩtarwo, o anini biũ, na marĩ ageni kuo-rĩ,
When they were yet few in number, Very few, and strangers in the land;
13 morũũraga kuuma rũrĩrĩ rũmwe nginya rũrĩa rũngĩ, na kuuma ũthamaki-inĩ ũmwe nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ.
When they went from nation to nation, 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 rebuked kings for their sakes.
15 “Mũtikanahutie andũ arĩa akwa aitĩrĩrie maguta; mũtikaneke anabii akwa ũũru.”
“Touch not,” said he, “mine anointed, And do my prophets no harm!”
16 Agĩtũma bũrũri ũcio ũgĩe ngʼaragu, na akĩniina mĩthiithũ yao yothe ya irio;
Again, when he commanded a famine in the land, And broke the whole staff of bread,
17 agĩtũma mũndũ athiĩ mbere yao: nĩwe Jusufu, ũrĩa wendirio arĩ ngombo.
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold as a slave.
18 Nĩmamũtiihirie magũrũ na bĩngũ, na makĩmuoha ngingo na igera,
His feet they hurt with fetters; He was bound in chains of iron;
19 nginya ũrĩa oigĩte ũgĩkinyanĩra, nginya kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩonania atĩ aarĩ mũndũ wa ma.
Until his prediction came to pass, And the word of the LORD proved him.
20 Mũthamaki agĩtũmana na akĩmuohorithia, mwathi ũcio wa ndũrĩrĩ akĩmũrekereria.
Then the king sent, and loosed him; The ruler of nations, and set him free;
21 Akĩmũtua mwathi wa indo cia nyũmba yake, na mũrori wa indo iria ciothe aarĩ nacio,
He made him governor of his house, And lord of all his possessions;
22 nĩguo ataarage anene ake o ũrĩa angĩonire kwagĩrĩire, na arutage athuuri ake ũũgĩ.
To bind his princes at his pleasure, And teach his counsellors wisdom.
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Isiraeli agĩthiĩ Misiri; Jakubu agĩtũũra arĩ mũgeni bũrũri-inĩ ũcio wa Hamu.
Israel also came into Egypt, And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham;
24 Jehova agĩtũma andũ ake maciarane mũno; agĩtũma maingĩhe mũno gũkĩra thũ ciao,
Where God increased his people greatly, And made them stronger than their enemies.
25 iria aagarũrire ngoro ciao agĩtũma ithũũre andũ ake, agĩtũma ithugundĩre ndungata ciake ũũru.
He turned their hearts to hate his people, And form devices against his servants.
26 Aatũmire Musa ndungata yake, na Harũni, ũrĩa aathurĩte.
Then sent he Moses his servant, And Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 Nao makĩringa ciama ciake gatagatĩ-inĩ kao, magĩĩka magegania make bũrũri-inĩ wa Hamu.
They showed his signs among them, And his wonders in the land of Ham.
28 Agĩtũma kũgĩe nduma naguo bũrũri ũcio ũgĩtumana, tondũ-rĩ, githĩ ti ciugo ciake maaremeire?
He sent darkness upon them, and made it dark; And they did not disobey his word.
29 Akĩgarũra maaĩ mao magĩtuĩka thakame, agĩtũma thamaki ciao ikue.
He turned their waters into blood, And caused their fish to die.
30 Bũrũri wao ũkĩiyũra ciũra, iria ciatoonyire nginya tũnyũmba twa toro twa anene ao.
Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, Even in the chambers of their kings.
31 Aaririe, gũgĩũka mĩrumbĩ ya ngi, na rwagĩ rũkĩiyũra bũrũri wao wothe.
He spake, and there came flies, And lice in all their coasts.
32 Akĩgarũra mbura yao ĩgĩtuĩka ya mbembe, na heni ikĩhenũka bũrũri-inĩ wao wothe;
Instead of rain he gave them hail, And flaming fire in their land.
33 akĩrũnda mĩthabibũ yao, na mĩkũyũ, na akiunanga mĩtĩ ya bũrũri wao.
He smote also their vines and fig-trees, And broke the trees of their coasts.
34 Aaririe, nacio ngigĩ igĩũka, na ndaahi itangĩtarĩka;
He spake, and the locusts came. Destructive locusts without number,
35 ikĩrĩa kĩndũ gĩothe kĩarĩ kĩĩruru bũrũri-inĩ wao, na ikĩrĩa maciaro ma tĩĩri wao.
Which ate up all the herbage in their land, And devoured the fruits of their fields.
36 Ningĩ akĩũraga marigithathi mothe ma bũrũri wao, maciaro ma mbere ma ũciari wao wothe.
Then he smote all the first-born in their land, The first-fruits 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.
He led forth his people with silver and gold; Nor was there one feeble person in all their tribes.
38 Andũ a Misiri nĩmakenire moima kuo, tondũ nĩmanyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya wa andũ acio a Isiraeli.
Egypt was glad when they departed, For their terror had 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 by night.
40 Metirie irio, nake akĩmarehere tũmakia-arũme, na akĩmahũũnia na irio cia igũrũ.
They asked, and he brought quails, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 Aatũranirie rwaro rwa ihiga, namo maaĩ magĩtothoka; magĩgĩtherera ta rũũĩ kũu werũ-inĩ.
He opened the rock, and the waters gushed forth, And 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 promise, Which he had made to Abraham his servant;
43 Nĩaarutire andũ ake makiuma kũu makenete, akĩruta acio ake athuure makĩanagĩrĩra nĩ gũkena;
And he led forth his people with joy, And his chosen with gladness.
44 akĩmahe mabũrũri ma ndũrĩrĩ, nao magĩtuĩka a kũgaya kĩrĩa andũ angĩ maanogeire,
He gave to them the lands of the nations, And they inherited the labor of the peoples;
45 nĩguo marũmagie mataaro make, na maathĩkagĩre mawatho make. Goocai Jehova.
That they might observe his statutes, And obey his laws. Praise ye the LORD!
