Thaburi 131

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, ngoro yakwa ndĩrĩ na mwĩgaatho, o na maitho makwa ti ma mwĩtũũgĩrio; niĩ ndirũmbũyanagia na maũndũ manene, o na kana maũndũ ma magegania marĩa mangĩrĩte.

Yahweh, I am not proud and I have not thought highly about (myself/the things that I have done). And I do not concern myself about things [that you have done] that are very big or very wonderful.

2 No rĩrĩ, nĩhooreretie na ngakiria ngoro yakwa; o ta kaana gatuithĩtio iria gakuuĩtwo nĩ nyina, o ta kaana gatuithĩtio iria nĩguo ngoro yakwa ĩhaana ĩrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa.

Instead, I am calm and peaceful, like a [small] child who lies quietly in its mother’s arms [SIM]. In the same way, I am peaceful.

3 Atĩrĩrĩ wee Isiraeli, wĩhokage Jehova rĩu na nginya tene.

You [my fellow] Israelis, confidently expect that Yahweh [will do good things for you], now and forever!
