Thaburi 13

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Nĩ nginya rĩ, Wee Jehova? Ũgũtũũra ũriganĩirwo nĩ niĩ nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ ũgũtũũra ũũhithĩte ũthiũ waku?

To the choirmaster a psalm of David. Until when? O Yahweh will you forget me perpetuity until when? - will you hide face your from me.

2 Nĩ nginya rĩ ngũtũũra ngianaga na meciiria makwa, na o mũthenya ngoragwo na ihooru ngoro-inĩ yakwa? Nĩ nginya rĩ thũ yakwa ĩgũtũũra ĩĩhootaga?

Until when? will I set counsel in soul my sorrow in heart my by day until when? - will he be exalted enemy my over me.

3 Wee Jehova, Ngai wakwa, ndora na ũnjookerie ũhoro. Tũma maitho makwa mone, nĩguo ndikae gũkoma toro wa gĩkuũ;

Pay attention! answer me O Yahweh God my give light to! eyes my lest I should sleep the death.

4 nĩguo thũ yakwa ndĩkoige atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩmũhootete,” nao arĩa marĩ muku na niĩ magĩkenere kũgũa gwakwa.

Lest he should say enemy my I have prevailed over him opponents my they will rejoice if I am shaken.

5 No niĩ ndĩhokete wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga; ngoro yakwa ĩkenagĩra ũhonokio waku.

And I - in covenant loyalty your I have trusted may it rejoice heart my in deliverance your

6 Nĩngũinĩra Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩanjĩkĩte wega mũno.

I will sing to Yahweh for he has dealt bountifully towards me.
