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.

To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David. The fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, [there is] none that doeth good.

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 looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did 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 [all] together become filthy: [there is] none that doeth good, no, not one.

4 Andũ acio mekaga maũndũ mooru kaĩ matamenyaga, o acio marĩĩaga andũ akwa o ta ũrĩa andũ marĩĩaga irio, o acio matakayagĩra Jehova?

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people [as] they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

5 Hau nĩho marĩ manyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya mũnene, nĩgũkorwo Ngai aikaraga hamwe na thiritũ ya arĩa athingu.

There were they in great fear: for God [is] in the generation of the righteous.

6 Inyuĩ andũ aya aaganu nĩmũthũkagia mĩbango ya arĩa athĩĩni, no Jehova nĩwe rĩũrĩro rĩao.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD [is] his refuge.

7 Naarĩ korwo ũhonokio wa Isiraeli no ũgĩũke kuuma Zayuni! Rĩrĩa Jehova agaacookeria andũ ake indo ciao-rĩ, Jakubu nĩagĩkene, na Isiraeli acanjamũke.

Oh that the salvation of Israel [were come] out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad.
