< Thaburi 132 >

1 Thaburi ya Agendi Wee Jehova, ririkana Daudi na mathĩĩna marĩa mothe omĩrĩirie.
A Song of degrees. Jehovah, remember for David all his affliction;
2 Nĩehĩtire mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Jehova, akĩĩhĩta harĩ ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, akiuga ũũ:
How he swore unto Jehovah, vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
3 “Ndigatoonya nyũmba yakwa, kana haice ũrĩrĩ wakwa,
I will not come into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed;
4 ndikaareke maitho makwa mone toro, kana ndeke imone ciakwa icũnge,
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, slumber to mine eyelids,
5 o nginya ngoonera Jehova handũ ha gũikara, ũcio Mwene-Hinya, o we Ngai wa Jakubu, ndĩmuonere gĩikaro.”
Until I find out a place for Jehovah, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob. ...
6 Nĩtwaiguire ũhoro tũrĩ Efiratha, na tũkĩũkora mĩgũnda-inĩ ya Kiriathu Jearimu.
Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
7 Tũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩi gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake; nĩtũinamĩrĩre tũmũhooe tũrĩ gaturwa-inĩ ka makinya make;
Let us go into his habitations, let us worship at his footstool.
8 arahũka, Wee Jehova, ũũke kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩaku, wee na ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩa hinya waku.
Arise, Jehovah, into thy rest, thou and the ark of thy strength.
9 Athĩnjĩri aku marohumbwo na ũthingu; andũ aku aamũre nĩmakĩine nĩ gũkena.”
Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, and let thy saints shout for joy.
10 Nĩ ũndũ wa ndungata yaku Daudi, ndũkarega ũrĩa we ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thine anointed.
11 Jehova nĩehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi, mwĩhĩtwa atangĩĩricũkwo, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Nĩngaikarĩria ũmwe wa rũciaro rwaku Gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene,
Jehovah hath sworn [in] truth unto David; he will not turn from it: Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne;
12 ariũ aku mangĩkaamenyerera kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa na mawatho makwa marĩa ndĩrĩmarutaga, hĩndĩ ĩyo ariũ ao nĩmagaikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene nginya tene na tene.”
If thy children keep my covenant, and my testimonies which I will teach them, their children also for evermore shall sit upon thy throne.
13 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩathuurĩte Zayuni, akerirĩria gũtuĩke gĩikaro gĩake, akoiga atĩrĩ:
For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his dwelling:
14 “Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩhurũko gĩakwa nginya tene na tene; gũkũ nĩkuo ngũtũũra njikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, nĩgũkorwo nĩ niĩ ndĩyendeire;
This is my rest for ever; here will I dwell, for I have desired it.
15 nĩngakũrathima na ũmaathi mũingĩ mũno; athĩĩni akuo ndĩmahũũnie na irio.
I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her needy ones with bread;
16 Nĩngahumba athĩnjĩri-Ngai akuo ũhonokio, na andũ akuo arĩa aamũre matũũre mainaga nĩ gũkena.
And I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
17 “Kũu nĩkuo ngaatũma rũhĩa rwa Daudi rũthundũke na njigĩre ũrĩa njitĩrĩirie maguta tawa ũgwakana.
There will I cause the horn of David to bud forth; I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
18 Thũ ciake nĩngacihumba thoni, no thũmbĩ ya ũnene ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mũtwe wake nĩĩgakenga na riiri.”
His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
