Thaburi 15

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova, nũũ ũngĩtũũra hema-inĩ yaku? Nũũ ũngĩtũũra kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩaku kĩrĩa kĩamũre?

A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent? Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?

2 Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa mĩthiĩre yake ĩtarĩ ũcuuke, na ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ ma ũthingu, na kwaria aragia ũhoro wa ma kuuma ngoro-inĩ yake,

He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

3 na ndarĩ njambanio rũrĩmĩ-inĩ rwake, na ndeekaga mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake ũũru, o na kana akamenereria mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ;

He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his neighbour.

4 mũndũ ũcio nĩathũire mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ mooru, no nĩatĩĩte arĩa etigĩri Jehova, na ndagaga kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa wake, o na ũngĩkorwo ũrĩ wa kũmũtuuria,

Despised in his eyes [is] a rejected one, And those fearing Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and changeth not;

5 ndakombanagĩra mbeeca ciake nĩguo one uumithio, na ndangĩoya ihaki nĩguo ahatĩrĩrie mũndũ ũteehĩtie. Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ ta macio ndarĩ hĩndĩ akeenyenyeka.

His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved to the age!
