Thaburi 45
1 Thaburi ya Ariũ a Kora Ngoro yakwa ĩiyũrĩtwo nĩ ũhoro mwega rĩrĩa ngũinĩra mũthamaki rwĩmbo rũrũ; rũrĩmĩ rwakwa no ta karamu ka mwandĩki ũrĩa mũũgĩ.
My heart overflows with a good matter. I speak the things which I have made concerning the king. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 Wee ũrĩ mũthaka mũno gũkĩra andũ othe, nacio iromo ciaku nĩciitĩrĩirio maũndũ ma ũtugi, kuona atĩ Ngai nĩakũrathimĩte nginya tene.
Thou are fairer than the sons of men. Grace is poured into thy lips. Therefore God has blessed thee forever.
3 Wĩohe rũhiũ rwaku rwa njora njohero, Wee njamba ĩno ĩrĩ hinya; wĩhumbe ũkaru waku o na ũnene.
Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.
4 Ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa ũnene waku thiĩ ũhaicĩte mbarathi, ũkĩhootanaga nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wa ma, na wa kwĩnyiihia, o na wa ũthingu; reke guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo kuonanie ciĩko cia kũmakania.
And in thy majesty ride on prosperously because of truth and gentleness and righteousness. And thy right hand shall teach thee awesome things.
5 Mĩguĩ yaku ĩrĩa mĩũgĩ nĩĩtheece thũ cia mũthamaki o ngoro-inĩ; ndũrĩrĩ nĩigwe magũrũ-inĩ maku.
Thine arrows are sharp. The peoples fall under thee. They are in the heart of the king's enemies.
6 Wee Ngai, gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene gĩgũtũũra tene na tene; mũthĩgi waku wa kĩhooto nĩguo ũgaatuĩka mũthĩgi wa ũthamaki waku.
Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever. A scepter of straightness is the scepter of thy kingdom.
7 Wee wendete ũthingu no ũgathũũra waganu; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ngai, o we Ngai waku, nĩakwambararĩtie gũkĩra athiritũ aku othe na ũndũ wa gũgũitĩrĩria maguta ma gĩkeno.
Thou have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
8 Nguo ciaku ciothe inungĩte o manemane, na thubiri, na mũndarathini; nĩũrakenio nĩ aini a nyĩmbo na inanda cia nga marĩ ciikaro-inĩ cia mũthamaki iria igemetio na mĩguongo.
All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
9 Thĩinĩ wa andũ-a-nja aku arĩa atĩĩku harĩ na aarĩ a athamaki; mũhiki ũcio wa mũthamaki aikarĩte mwena waku wa ũrĩo egemetie na thahabu ya Ofiri.
Kings' daughters are among thy honorable women. At thy right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Ta thikĩrĩria, wee mwarĩ ũyũ, wĩcũũranie na ũigue: Riganĩrwo nĩ andũ anyu o na nyũmba ya thoguo.
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear. Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house.
11 Mũthamaki nĩakenetio mũno nĩ ũthaka waku; mũtĩĩe, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe mwathi waku.
So will the king desire thy beauty, for he is thy lord, and reverence thou him.
12 Mwarĩ wa Turo nĩagakũrehera kĩheo, o nao andũ arĩa atongu mũno magatuĩka a kwĩyendithia harĩwe.
And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with a gift. The rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.
13 Mwarĩ wa mũthamaki no riiri mũtheri arĩ naguo arĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yake, nguo yake ĩtumĩtwo na ndigi cia thahabu.
Inside, the king's daughter is all glorious. Her clothing is embroidered with gold.
14 Aratwarwo harĩ mũthamaki ehumbĩte nguo ngʼemie; oimĩtwo thuutha nĩ airĩtu gathirange a thiritũ yake, na othe marooka kũrĩ we.
She shall be led to the king in broidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to thee.
15 Mararehwo na gĩkeno na ndũhiũ; nĩmatoonye nyũmba ya mũthamaki.
With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the king's palace.
16 Ciana cianyu nĩcio igaacooka ithenya rĩa maithe manyu; ũkaamatua anene bũrũri-inĩ guothe.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, whom thou shall make rulers in all the earth.
17 Nĩngũtũma ũtũũre ũririkanagwo nĩ njiarwa na njiarwa; nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndũrĩrĩ igaatũũra igũkumagia tene na tene.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give thee thanks forever and ever.
