1 Thaburi ya Daudi Nĩngũgũtũũgĩria, Wee Ngai wakwa Mũthamaki; ndĩrĩĩgoocaga rĩĩtwa rĩaku tene na tene.
“A song of praise. By David.” I will extol thee, my God, the King! I will praise thy name for ever and ever!
2 O mũthenya ndĩrĩkũgoocaga na ngumagie rĩĩtwa rĩaku tene na tene.
Every day will I bless thee, And praise thy name for ever and ever!
3 Jehova nĩwe mũnene, na nowe wagĩrĩire kũgoocwo mũno; ũnene wake gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kũũtuĩria.
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; Yea, his greatness is unsearchable.
4 Rũciaro rũmwe nĩrũkarahĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ maũndũ marĩa waneka; nĩrũkamenyithanagia ũhoro wa ciĩko ciaku cia hinya.
One generation shall praise thy works to another, And shall declare thy mighty deeds.
5 Nĩmakaaria ũhoro wa ũkaru wa ũnene waku ũrĩa ũrĩ riiri, na niĩ ndaranagie ũhoro wa ciĩko ciaku cia magegania.
I will speak of the glorious honor of thy majesty, And of thy wonderful works.
6 Nĩmarĩheanaga ũhoro wa ũhoti wa maũndũ maku ma kũmakania, na niĩ hunjagie ũhoro wa ũnene wa ciĩko ciaku.
Men shall speak of the might of thy terrible deeds, And I will declare thy greatness;
7 Nĩmagakũngũĩra wega waku mũingĩ, na maine ũhoro wa ũthingu waku makenete.
They shall pour forth the praise of thy great good And sing of thy righteousness.
8 Jehova nĩ mũtugi na nĩ mũigua-tha, ndahiũhaga kũrakara, na aiyũrĩtwo nĩ wendo.
The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion, Slow to anger, and rich in mercy.
9 Jehova nĩ mwega harĩ andũ othe; nĩaiguagĩra tha kĩrĩa gĩothe ombĩte.
The LORD is good to all. And his tender mercies are over all his works.
10 Wee Jehova, kĩrĩa gĩothe ũmbĩte nĩkĩrĩkũgoocaga; andũ aku arĩa aamũre nĩmarĩgũkumagia.
All thy works praise thee, O LORD! And thy holy ones bless thee!
11 Nĩmarĩheanaga ũhoro wa riiri wa ũthamaki waku, na maaragie ũhoro wa hinya waku,
They speak of the glory of thy kingdom, And talk of thy power;
12 nĩgeetha andũ othe mamenye ũhoro wa ciĩko ciaku cia hinya, o na ũkaru wa ũthamaki waku, ũrĩa ũrĩ riiri.
To make known to the sons of men his mighty deeds, And the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
13 Ũthamaki waku nĩ ũthamaki wa gũtũũra tene na tene, naguo wathani waku ũtũũraga nginya njiarwa ciothe. Jehova nĩ mwĩhokeku harĩ ciĩranĩro ciake ciothe, na nĩendete kĩrĩa gĩothe ombĩte.
Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
14 Jehova nĩanyiitagĩrĩra arĩa othe maragũa, na agatiira arĩa othe mainamĩte.
The LORD upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all that are bowed down.
15 Maitho ma andũ othe nĩwe macũthĩrĩirie, na nĩũmaheaga irio ciao hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yagĩrĩire.
The eyes of all wait upon thee, And thou givest them their food in due season;
16 Ũkũnjũraga guoko gwaku, na ũkahingĩria kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrĩ muoyo mabataro makĩo.
Thou openest thine hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
17 Jehova nĩ mũthingu njĩra-inĩ ciake ciothe, na nĩendete kĩrĩa gĩothe ombĩte.
The LORD is righteous in all his ways, And merciful in all his works.
18 Jehova arĩ hakuhĩ na andũ arĩa othe mamũkayagĩra, arĩa othe mamũkayagĩra na ma.
The LORD is nigh to all that call upon him, To all that call upon him in truth.
19 Arĩa othe mamwĩtigagĩra nĩamahingagĩria mabataro mao; nĩaiguaga kĩrĩro kĩao na akamahonokia.
He fulfilleth the desire of them that fear him; He heareth their cry, and saveth them.
20 Jehova nĩamenyagĩrĩra arĩa othe mamwendete, no arĩa othe aaganu nĩkũniina akaamaniina.
The LORD preserveth all that love him; But all the wicked he will destroy.
21 Kanua gakwa karĩaragia gakagooca Jehova. Kĩũmbe o gĩothe nĩgĩkĩgooce rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru nginya tene na tene.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD; And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever!
