Thaburi 14
1 Thaburi ya Daudi Kĩrimũ kĩĩraga na ngoro atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ Ngai.” Nĩ amaramari, ciĩko ciao nĩ njũru; gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wĩkaga wega.
Unto the end, a psalm for David. The fool hath said in his heart: There is no God, They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: there is none that doth good, no not one.
2 Jehova aroraga ciana cia ariũ a andũ arĩ o igũrũ, one kana nĩ harĩ ũrĩ na ũmenyo, o na kana nĩ harĩ ũrongoragia Ngai.
The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there be any that understand and seek God.
3 Othe-rĩ, nĩmorĩte njĩra, magatuĩka amaramari marĩ hamwe; gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wĩkaga wega, gũtirĩ o na ũmwe.
They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre: with their tongues they acted deceitfully; the poison of asps is under their lips. Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood. Destruction and unhappiness in their ways: and the way of peace they have not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.
4 Andũ acio mekaga maũndũ mooru kaĩ matamenyaga, o acio marĩĩaga andũ akwa o ta ũrĩa andũ marĩĩaga irio, o acio matakayagĩra Jehova?
Shall not all they know that work iniquity, who devour my people as they eat bread?
5 Hau nĩho marĩ manyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya mũnene, nĩgũkorwo Ngai aikaraga hamwe na thiritũ ya arĩa athingu.
They have not called upon the Lord: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.
6 Inyuĩ andũ aya aaganu nĩmũthũkagia mĩbango ya arĩa athĩĩni, no Jehova nĩwe rĩũrĩro rĩao.
For the Lord is in the just generation: you have confounded the counsel of the poor man, but the Lord is his hope.
7 Naarĩ korwo ũhonokio wa Isiraeli no ũgĩũke kuuma Zayuni! Rĩrĩa Jehova agaacookeria andũ ake indo ciao-rĩ, Jakubu nĩagĩkene, na Isiraeli acanjamũke.
Who shall give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.
