< Thaburi 36 >

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Ndĩ na ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ngoro-inĩ yakwa, ĩkoniĩ wĩhia wa mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu: Nĩ atĩrĩ, hatirĩ wĩtigĩri Ngai maitho-inĩ make.
TO THE OVERSEER. BY A SERVANT OF YHWH, BY DAVID. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, “Fear of God is not before his eyes,
2 Nĩ gũkorwo maitho-inĩ make mwene erahaga mũno, ũũ atĩ ndangĩhota gũkũũrana o na kana athũũre mehia make.
For he made [it] smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.
3 Ciugo cia kanua gake nĩ cia waganu na nĩ cia maheeni; nĩatigĩte gũtuĩka mũndũ mũũgĩ na wa gwĩkaga wega.
The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently—to do good.
4 O na arĩ ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wake athugundaga o maũndũ mooru; eheanaga njĩra-inĩ ya kũmwerekeria gwĩka ũũru, na ndathũũraga ũndũ mũũru.
He devises iniquity on his bed, He stations himself on a way not good, He does not refuse evil.”
5 Wee Jehova-rĩ, wendani waku ũkinyĩte o igũrũ, naguo wĩhokeku waku ũgakinya o matu-inĩ.
O YHWH, Your kindness [is] in the heavens, Your faithfulness [is] to the clouds.
6 Ũthingu waku ũhaana ta irĩma iria nene, kĩhooto gĩaku gĩkarikĩra ta kũrĩa kũriku. Wee Jehova-rĩ, ũmenyagĩrĩra mũndũ o na nyamũ.
Your righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Your judgments [are] a great deep. You save man and beast, O YHWH.
7 Hĩ! Kaĩ wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga nĩ wa goro mũno-ĩ! Andũ othe anene na anini moragĩra kĩĩgunyĩ-inĩ kĩa mathagu maku.
How precious [is] Your kindness, O God, And the sons of men trust In the shadow of Your wings.
8 Marĩĩaga makaigania kuumana na ũingĩ wa nyũmba yaku; ũmaheaga gĩa kũnyua kuuma rũũĩ-inĩ rwaku rwa gĩkeno.
They are filled from the fatness of Your house, And You cause them to drink the stream of Your delights.
9 Nĩgũkorwo gĩthima kĩa muoyo kĩrĩ kũrĩ we; ũtheri-inĩ waku nĩho tuonaga ũtheri.
For a fountain of life [is] with You, In Your light we see light.
10 Kĩrĩrĩria kwenda arĩa makũũĩ, naguo ũthingu waku ũtũũre na arĩa arũngĩrĩru ngoro.
Draw out Your kindness to those knowing You, And Your righteousness to the upright of heart.
11 Ikinya rĩa ũrĩa mwĩtĩĩi rĩroaga kũnjũkĩrĩra, o na kana guoko kwa ũrĩa mwaganu kũnyingate.
Do not let a foot of pride meet me, And do not let a hand of the wicked move me.
12 Ta rora wone ũrĩa andũ arĩa mekaga ũũru magwĩte thĩ; maikanĩtio thĩ, na matingĩhota gũũkĩra!
Workers of iniquity have fallen there, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!
