Thaburi 130

1 Thaburi ya Agendi Wee Jehova-rĩ, ndĩragũkaĩra ndĩ o kũrĩa kũriku;

A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.

2 Wee Jehova, igua mũgambo wakwa. Matũ maku nĩmaigue ngĩgũkaĩra ũnjiguĩre tha.

Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.

3 Wee Jehova, korwo no ũtare maita marĩa tũkwĩhagĩria-rĩ, nũũ ũngĩgwĩtiiria, Wee Jehova?

O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?

4 No rĩrĩ, Wee nĩũrekanagĩra; nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩwĩtigĩrĩtwo.

But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.

5 Njetagĩrĩra Jehova, ngoro yakwa nĩĩmwetereire, niĩ ndĩĩhokaga kiugo gĩake.

I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.

6 Ngoro yakwa yetagĩrĩra Jehova, gũkĩra ũrĩa arangĩri metagĩrĩra rũciinĩ gũkĩe, ĩĩ-ni, gũkĩra ũrĩa arangĩri metagĩrĩra rũciinĩ gũkĩe.

My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.

7 Wee Isiraeli, wĩhokage Jehova, nĩgũkorwo harĩ Jehova he wendo ũrĩa ũtathiraga, na ningĩ harĩ we harĩ na ũhonokio kũna.

O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.

8 We mwene nĩagakũũra Isiraeli kuuma mehia-inĩ mao mothe.

And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
