1 Inĩrai Jehova mũkenete, inyuĩ andũ arĩa athingu; andũ arĩa arũngĩrĩru ngoro nĩo maagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmũgooca.
Rejoice in YHWH, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
2 Goocai Jehova na kĩnanda kĩa mũgeeto; mũinĩrei na kĩnanda kĩrĩa kĩgeete na nga ikũmi.
Praise YHWH with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
3 Mũinĩrei rwĩmbo rwerũ; hũũrai inanda mũrĩ na ũũgĩ, na mwanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena.
Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
4 Nĩgũkorwo kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩkĩerekereru na nĩ kĩa ma; we nĩ mwĩhokeku maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa ekaga.
For the word of YHWH is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5 Jehova nĩendete ũthingu na ciira wa kĩhooto; thĩ yothe ĩiyũrĩte wendani wake ũrĩa ũtathiraga.
He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of YHWH.
6 Igũrũ rĩombirwo na ũndũ wa kiugo kĩa Jehova, mbũtũ cia igũrũ ikĩũmbwo na mĩhũmũ ya kanua gake.
By the word of YHWH were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 Aacookanĩrĩirie maaĩ ma iria inene ndigithũ-inĩ; maaĩ ma kũrĩa kũriku aamaigire thĩinĩ wa makũmbĩ.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
8 Thĩ yothe nĩĩtigĩre Jehova; andũ othe a thĩ nĩmamũtĩĩe.
Let all the earth fear YHWH: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 Nĩgũkorwo aaririe, thĩ ĩkĩgĩa kuo; aathanire, ĩkĩĩhaanda, ĩkĩrũma wega.
For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 Jehova nĩarigiicaga mĩbango ya ndũrĩrĩ; nĩathũkagia mĩoroto ya andũ.
YHWH bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 No mĩbango ya Jehova ĩĩhaandaga wega nginya tene, mĩoroto ya ngoro yake ĩgakinyĩra njiarwa na njiarwa.
The counsel of YHWH standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa Jehova arĩ we Ngai waruo, andũ arĩa eethuurĩire matuĩke igai rĩake.
Blessed is the nation whose Elohim is YHWH: and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13 Jehova arĩ igũrũ aroraga thĩ akoona andũ othe;
YHWH looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14 acũthagĩrĩria arĩa othe matũũraga gũkũ thĩ, arĩ o kũu gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake,
From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15 we nĩwe mũũmbi wa ngoro ciao othe, na nĩoĩ mawĩra mao mothe.
He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
16 Gũtirĩ mũthamaki ũhonokagio nĩ mũigana wa ita rĩake, na gũtirĩ njamba ya ita ĩĩteithũraga nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wayo mũnene.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 Ha ũhoro wa kũhonokania-rĩ, mbarathi cia mbaara nĩ mwĩhoko wa tũhũ; o na ĩrĩ na hinya mũingĩ ndĩngĩhonokania.
An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
18 No rĩrĩ, maitho ma Jehova macũthagĩrĩria andũ arĩa mamwĩtigagĩra, o acio maikaraga mehokete wendo wake ũrĩa ũtathiraga,
Behold, the eye of YHWH is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19 akamateithũra gĩkuũ-inĩ, na akamatũũria muoyo hĩndĩ ya ngʼaragu.
To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Ithuĩ twetagĩrĩra Jehova tũrĩ na mwĩhoko; nĩwe ũteithio witũ o na ngo iitũ.
Our soul waiteth for YHWH: he is our help and our shield.
21 Ngoro ciitũ nĩcikenete nĩ ũndũ wake, nĩgũkorwo twĩhokete rĩĩtwa rĩake itheru.
For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 Wee Jehova-rĩ, wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga ũroikarania na ithuĩ, o ta ũrĩa ithuĩ tũkwĩrĩgĩrĩire.
Let thy mercy, O YHWH, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
