Thaburi 20

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova arogwĩtĩka rĩrĩa ũrĩ mĩnyamaro-inĩ; rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai wa Jakubu rĩrokũgitĩra.

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

2 Arokũrehere ũteithio kuuma handũ harĩa hake haamũre, na agũtiirĩrĩre arĩ kũu Zayuni.

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

3 Aroririkana magongona maku mothe, na etĩkĩre maruta maku ma njino.

Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

4 Arokũhe maũndũ marĩa ngoro yaku ĩĩrirĩirie, na atũme mĩbango yaku yothe ĩgaacĩre.

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

5 Rĩrĩa ũkaahootana nĩtũkoigĩrĩria na gĩkeno, na tuoye bendera ciitũ na igũrũ nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai witũ. Jehova arokũhingĩria maũndũ marĩa mothe ũmũhooete.

We will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Rĩu nĩmenyete atĩ Jehova nĩahonokagia ũrĩa wake mũitĩrĩrie maguta; nĩamwĩtĩkaga arĩ kũu igũrũ rĩake rĩamũre, arĩ na ũhoti wa kũhonokania ũrĩa ũrĩ guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo.

Now, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own right hand.

7 Andũ amwe mehokaga ngaari cia ita, na angĩ makehoka mbarathi, no ithuĩ twĩhokaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai witũ.

These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

8 Makurumaga makagũa thĩ, no ithuĩ tũrũgamaga tũkehaanda.

They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

9 Wee Jehova, honokia mũthamaki! Twĩtĩkage rĩrĩa twagũkaĩra!

Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.
