< Thaburi 32 >
1 Thaburi ya Daudi Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ ũrĩa ũrekeirwo mahĩtia make, o ũrĩa mehia make mahumbĩrĩtwo.
A psalm of David. How happy are those whose wrongs are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
2 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa Jehova atatuaga mwĩhia, na ũrĩa ũtarĩ ũhinga ngoro.
How happy are those whose sins the Lord does not count against them, those who do not act deceptively.
3 Rĩrĩa ndakirĩte ki, mahĩndĩ makwa nĩmahinyarire nĩ ũndũ wa gũcaaya gwakwa mũthenya wothe.
When I kept quiet, my body fell apart as I groaned in distress all day long.
4 Nĩgũkorwo guoko gwaku nĩ kwanditũhagĩra mũthenya na ũtukũ; hinya wakwa wathirire o ta ũrĩa ime rĩthiraga hĩndĩ ya riũa.
You beat me day and night, my strength dried up as in the heat of summer. (Selah)
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo ngĩkumbũrĩra mehia makwa, na ndiahithire waganu wakwa, ndoigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩngumbũra mahĩtia makwa kũrĩ Jehova,” nawe ũkĩndekera ũũru wa mehia makwa.
Then I confessed my sins to you. I did not hide the wrongs I had done. I said to myself, “I will confess my disobedience to the Lord,” and you forgave the guilt of my sins. (Selah)
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ wothe mwĩtigĩri Ngai nĩakũhooe rĩrĩa ũngĩoneka; ti-itherũ rĩrĩa maaĩ maingĩ marĩ hinya maambũrũrũka, matingĩmũkinyĩra.
Therefore let all who are faithful pray to you while there's time, so when trouble comes in like a flood it will not overwhelm them.
7 Wee nĩwe kĩĩhitho gĩakwa; nĩũkangitĩra hĩndĩ ya mathĩĩna, na ũũthiũrũrũkĩrie na nyĩmbo cia ũhonokio.
For you are my refuge, you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of salvation. (Selah)
8 Nĩndĩrĩkũrutaga na ngakuonereria njĩra ĩrĩa wagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũgera; ndĩrĩgũtaaraga na ngũmenyagĩrĩre.
“I will instruct you, teaching you the way to follow. I will advise you, watching out for you.
9 Ndũkahaane ta mbarathi kana nyũmbũ, iria itarĩ ũmenyo, iria arĩ o nginya ciĩkĩrwo matamu na mĩkwa kanua, kwaga ũguo itingĩgũkuhĩrĩria.
You mustn't be like a horse or a mule that doesn't know which way to go without a bit or a bridle. Otherwise they can't be controlled.”
10 Andũ arĩa aaganu monaga maruo maingĩ, no mũndũ ũrĩa wĩhokaga Jehova egũtũũra arigiicĩirio nĩ wendo ũrĩa ũtathiraga.
The wicked have many problems, but those who trust in the Lord will be surrounded by his never-failing love.
11 Inyuĩ arĩa athingu kenerai Jehova na mũcanjamũke; mũinĩrei, inyuothe arĩa arũngĩrĩru ngoro!
So be happy in the Lord and celebrate, you who do good. Shout for joy, all you who live right!
