< Thaburi 123 >
1 Thaburi ya Agendi Nĩngũtiira maitho makwa na kũrĩ we, o Wee ũikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene kũu igũrũ.
`The song of grecis. To thee Y haue reisid myn iyen; that dwellist in heuenes.
2 O ta ũrĩa maitho ma ndungata maroragĩrĩria guoko kwa mwathi wayo, na o ta ũrĩa maitho ma mũirĩtu ndungata maroragĩrĩria guoko kwa mũtumia mwathi wayo, ũguo noguo maitho maitũ maroragĩrĩria Jehova Ngai witũ, o nginya atũiguĩre tha ciake.
Lo! as the iyen of seruauntis; ben in the hondis of her lordis. As the iyen of the handmaide ben in the hondis of her ladi; so oure iyen ben to oure Lord God, til he haue mercy on vs.
3 Tũiguĩre tha, Wee Jehova, tũiguĩre tha, nĩgũkorwo nĩtũkirĩrĩirie kũnyararwo kũnene.
Lord, haue thou merci on vs, haue thou merci on vs; for we ben myche fillid with dispisyng.
4 Nĩtũkirĩrĩirie kĩnyũrũri kĩnene kĩa andũ arĩa menenehagia, o na rũmena rũingĩ rwa andũ arĩa etĩĩi.
For oure soule is myche fillid; we ben schenschipe to hem that ben abundaunte with richessis, and dispising to proude men.
