Thaburi 25
1 Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, ngoro yakwa ndĩmĩroretie na igũrũ kũrĩ we;
[A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
2 Wee Ngai wakwa, nowe ndĩhokete. Ndũkareke njonorithio, o na kana ũreke thũ ciakwa ingenerere.
O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkwĩhokete ũgaaconorithio o na rĩ, no arĩa mekaga andũ ũũru hatarĩ gĩtũmi-rĩ, acio nĩo magaconorithio.
Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
4 Wee Jehova, nyonia mĩthiĩre yaku, ũũmenyithie njĩra ciaku;
Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
5 ndongoria ũhoro-inĩ waku wa ma na ũndutage, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa ũũhonokagia, na nĩwe kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro gĩakwa mũthenya wothe.
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou [art] the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
6 Jehova, ririkana tha ciaku nyingĩ o na wendo waku, nĩgũkorwo nĩ cia kuuma o tene.
Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they [have been] ever of old.
7 Ndũkaririkane mehia ma ũnini wakwa, o na kana mehia makwa ma ũremi; ndirikana kũringana na wendani waku, nĩ ũndũ wa wega waku, Wee Jehova.
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD.
8 Jehova nĩ mwega na nĩ mũrũngĩrĩru; nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa ehia nĩarĩmonagĩrĩria njĩra ciake.
Good and upright [is] the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
9 Atongoragia andũ arĩa menyiihagia na njĩra ĩrĩa yagĩrĩire, na akamarutaga njĩra yake.
The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
10 Njĩra ciothe cia Jehova nĩ cia wendani na wĩhokeku, harĩ arĩa mamenyagĩrĩra kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake.
All the paths of the LORD [are] mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11 Wee Jehova, nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku-rĩ, ndekera mehia makwa, o na gũtuĩka nĩ manene.
For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it [is] great.
12 Mũndũ ũrĩa mwĩtigĩri Jehova nũũ? Mũndũ ũcio nĩarĩmuonagĩrĩria njĩra ĩrĩa aagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũgera.
What man [is] he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way [that] he shall choose.
13 Mũndũ ũcio egũtũũra matukũ make agaacĩire, nacio njiaro ciake nĩikaagaya bũrũri.
His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
14 Jehova nĩehokaga andũ arĩa mamwĩtigagĩra; nĩo amenyithagia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩake.
The secret of the LORD [is] with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
15 Maitho makwa maikaraga hĩndĩ ciothe macũthĩrĩirie Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nowe wiki ũngĩteithũkithia magũrũ makwa mũtego-inĩ.
Mine eyes [are] ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
16 Hũgũkĩra, ũnyonie ũtugi waku, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ o nyiki na ndĩ mũnyamarĩku.
Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I [am] desolate and afflicted.
17 Mathĩĩna ma ngoro yakwa nĩmaingĩhĩte; niinĩra ruo rũrĩa ndĩ naruo.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged: [O] bring thou me out of my distresses.
18 Rora mĩnyamaro yakwa o na gũtangĩka gwakwa, ũkĩndekere mehia makwa mothe.
Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
19 Rora thũ ciakwa wone ũrĩa cingĩhĩte, nacio iithũire na rũthũũro rũtarĩ tha!
Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
20 Menyagĩrĩra muoyo wakwa na ũũthare; ndũkareke njonorithio, nĩgũkorwo nĩ harĩwe njũragĩra.
O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
21 Wĩkindĩru wa ngoro na ũrũngĩrĩru irongitagĩra, tondũ nĩwe njĩrĩgagĩrĩra.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
22 Wee Ngai, gĩkũũre andũ a Isiraeli, moime mathĩĩna-inĩ mao mothe!
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
