1 Thaburi ya Daudi Thĩ nĩ ya Jehova, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo, mabũrũri mothe o na arĩa matũũraga kuo;
On the first day of the week, a psalm for David. The earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof: the world, and all they that dwell therein.
2 nĩgũkorwo nĩwe waakire mũthingi wayo igũrũ rĩa maria, na akĩmĩrũmia ĩikare igũrũ rĩa maaĩ.
For he hath founded it upon the seas; and hath prepared it upon the rivers.
3 Nũũ ũngĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Jehova? Nũũ ũngĩrũgama handũ harĩa hake haamũre?
Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ na moko matheru na akaaga ũũru ngoro, na ũrĩa ngoro yake ĩtahooyaga mũhianano, o na kana akeehĩta na maheeni.
The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, who hath not taken his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.
5 Mũndũ ũcio nĩarĩamũkagĩra kĩrathimo kuuma kũrĩ Jehova, na onagwo atarĩ mũhĩtia nĩ Ngai, Mũhonokia wake.
He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.
6 Ũguo nĩguo rũciaro rwa arĩa mamũrongoragia rũtariĩ, o rũrĩa rũrongoragia ũthiũ waku, Wee Ngai wa Jakubu.
This is the generation of them that seek him, of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.
7 Ambarariai mĩtwe yanyu, inyuĩ ihingo ici, ambararioi inyuĩ mĩrango ĩno ya tene, nĩguo Mũthamaki wa riiri atoonye thĩinĩ.
Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.
8 Mũthamaki ũcio wa riiri nĩwe ũũ? Nĩwe Jehova ũrĩa ũrĩ hinya na nĩ njamba, nĩwe Jehova ũrĩa njamba ita-inĩ.
Who is this King of Glory? the Lord who is strong and mighty: the Lord mighty in battle.
9 Ambarariai mĩtwe yanyu, inyuĩ ihingo ici, mĩambarariei inyuĩ mĩrango ĩno ya tene, nĩguo Mũthamaki wa riiri atoonye thĩinĩ.
Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.
10 Mũthamaki ũcio wa riiri nĩwe ũ? Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe-rĩ, nĩwe Mũthamaki wa riiri.
Who is this King of Glory? the Lord of hosts, he is the King of Glory.
