1 Goocai Jehova. Cookeriai Jehova ngaatho, nĩgũkorwo nĩ mwega; wendo wake ũtũũraga nginya tene.
Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness.
2 Nũũ ũngiuga ciĩko cia hinya cia Jehova, kana aanĩrĩre kũna ũgooci wake wothe?
Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all His praise?
3 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ arĩa marũmagia kĩhooto, arĩa meekaga ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire hĩndĩ ciothe.
O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.
4 Ndirikanaga, Wee Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũgwĩka andũ aku wega, ũndeithagie rĩrĩa ũkũmahonokia,
Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people, Look after me in Thy salvation.
5 nĩguo ngenagĩre ũgaacĩru wa andũ aku athuure, nĩguo ngwatanagĩre gĩkeno-inĩ kĩa rũrĩrĩ rwaku, na nyiitanagĩre na igai rĩaku tũgĩkũgooca.
To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.
6 Ithuĩ nĩtwĩhĩtie, o ta ũrĩa maithe maitũ meehirie; nĩtwĩkĩte ũũru na tũkaagana.
We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.
7 Rĩrĩa maithe maitũ maarĩ Misiri, matiarũmbũirie ciama ciaku; matiigana kũririkana ũtugi waku mũingĩ, na makĩrema marĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, o Iria rĩu Itune.
Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.
8 No nĩamahonokirie nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake, nĩguo atũme hinya wake mũnene ũmenyeke.
And He saveth them for His name's sake, To make known His might,
9 Nĩakũũmire Iria Itune, narĩo rĩkĩhũa; akĩmagereria kũu kũriku taarĩ werũ-inĩ.
And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
10 Nĩamahonokirie guoko-inĩ kwa andũ arĩa maamathũire; akĩmakũũra kuuma guoko-inĩ gwa thũ.
And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.
11 Maaĩ macio nĩmahubanĩirie amuku ao; gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao watigarire.
And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not been left.
12 Hĩndĩ ĩyo magĩĩtĩkia ciĩranĩro ciake, na makĩmũinĩra, makĩmũgooca.
And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
13 No makĩriganĩrwo o narua nĩ ũrĩa ekĩte, na matiigana gweterera ũtaaro wake.
They have hasted — forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.
14 Marĩ kũu werũ-inĩ makĩnyiitwo nĩ thuti; makĩgeria Mũrungu marĩ kũu gũtagĩĩaga kĩndũ.
And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmahe kĩrĩa maamwĩtirie, no akĩmatũmĩra mũrimũ wa kũmanyariira.
And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness into their soul.
16 Ningĩ nĩmaiguĩrĩire Musa ũiru marĩ kũu kambĩ-inĩ, o na makĩiguĩra Harũni ũiru, o ũcio wamũrĩirwo Jehova.
And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.
17 Thĩ ĩgĩatũka na ĩkĩmeria Dathani; ningĩ ĩgĩthika thiritũ ya Abiramu.
Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth over the company of Abiram.
18 Mwaki ũgĩakana gatagatĩ-inĩ ka arũmĩrĩri ao; rũrĩrĩmbĩ rũgĩcina andũ acio aaganu.
And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on fire the wicked.
19 Nĩmathondekire gacaũ marĩ kũu Horebu, makĩhooya mũhianano ũtweketio kuuma kũrĩ kĩgera.
They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,
20 Maakũũranirie Riiri wa Ngai na mũhianano wa ndegwa ĩrĩa ĩrĩĩaga nyeki.
And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating herbs.
21 Makĩriganĩrwo nĩ Mũrungu ũrĩa wamahonokirie, ũrĩa wekĩte maũndũ manene kũu bũrũri wa Misiri,
They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great things in Egypt,
22 akĩringa ciama bũrũri wa Hamu, na agĩĩka mawĩko ma gwĩtigĩrwo Iria-inĩ Itune.
Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the sea of Suph.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akiuga nĩekũmaniina, tiga nĩ Musa, ũrĩa we aathurĩte, warũgamire mbere yake, akĩmũthaitha ndakamaniine na mangʼũrĩ make.
And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.
24 Ningĩ makĩnyarara bũrũri ũcio mwega, makĩaga gwĩtĩkia kĩĩranĩro gĩake.
And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.
25 Makĩnuguna marĩ hema-inĩ ciao, na makĩaga gwathĩkĩra Jehova.
And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah.
26 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩoya guoko na igũrũ, akĩĩhĩta atĩ nĩakamangʼaũranĩria kũu werũ-inĩ,
And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,
27 angʼaũranĩrie njiaro ciao kũu gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ, aciharaganĩrie kũu mabũrũri-inĩ guothe.
And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.
28 Nĩmeyohanirie na Baali ya Peoru, na makĩrĩa magongona maarutĩirwo ngai itarĩ muoyo;
And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,
29 magĩtũma Jehova arakare nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao cia waganu, naguo mũthiro ũgĩtuthũka gatagatĩ-inĩ kao.
And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaketh forth upon them,
30 No Finehasi akĩrũgama na igũrũ, akĩherithia arĩa maarĩ na mahĩtia, naguo mũthiro ũgĩthira.
And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment, And the plague is restrained,
31 Ũhoro ũcio ũgĩtũma atuuo nĩ mũthingu kũrĩ njiarwa na njiarwa nginya tene.
And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations — unto the age.
32 Nao makĩrakaria Jehova hau maaĩ-inĩ ma Meriba, nake Musa agĩkinyĩrĩrwo nĩ thĩĩna nĩ ũndũ wao;
And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
33 nĩgũkorwo nĩmaremeire Roho wa Ngai, nake Musa akĩaria ciugo itaagĩrĩire.
For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh wrongfully with his lips.
34 Matiigana kũniina ndũrĩrĩ icio ta ũrĩa Jehova aamaathĩte,
They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said to them,
35 no nĩgũtukana maatukanire na ndũrĩrĩ, na makĩrũmĩrĩra mĩtugo yao.
And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
36 Makĩhooya mĩhianano yao, ĩrĩa yatuĩkire mũtego kũrĩ o.
And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.
37 Makĩrutĩra ndaimono aanake na airĩtu ao marĩ magongona.
And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,
38 Magĩita thakame ĩteehĩtie, thakame ya aanake na airĩtu ao, arĩa maarutire marĩ magongona kũrĩ mĩhianano ya Kaanani, naguo bũrũri ũgĩthaahio nĩ thakame yao.
And they shed innocent blood — Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
39 Nĩmethaahirie o ene nĩ gwĩka ũguo meekire; na ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao makĩhũũra ũmaraya.
And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
40 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩrakarĩra andũ ake, na agĩthũũra igai rĩake mũno.
And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.
41 Akĩmaneana kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ, nĩguo maathagwo nĩ thũ ciao.
And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
42 Thũ ciao ikĩmahinyĩrĩria, na ikĩmaiga rungu rwa wathani wao.
And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
43 Nake akĩmateithũra mahinda maingĩ, no-o makĩrema, makĩrikĩra mehia-inĩ mao.
Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
44 Nowe akĩona mĩnyamaro yao rĩrĩa aaiguire magĩkaya;
And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,
45 nĩ ũndũ wao akĩririkana kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake, na nĩ ũndũ wa wendo wake mũnene akĩringwo nĩ tha.
And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
46 Agĩtũma maiguĩrwo tha nĩ arĩa othe maamatahĩte.
And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.
47 Tũhonokie, Wee Jehova Ngai witũ, na ũtũcookanĩrĩrie ũtũrute kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ, nĩguo tũcookagĩrie rĩĩtwa rĩaku itheru ngaatho, na twĩrahagĩre ũgooci waku.
Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.
48 Jehova arogoocwo, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, kuuma tene wa tene, nginya o tene na tene. Nao andũ othe nĩmakiuge, “Ameni!” Goocai Jehova.
Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even unto the age. And all the people said, 'Amen, praise Jah!'
