< Thaburi 46 >
1 Thaburi ya Ariũ a Kora Ngai nĩwe rĩũrĩro riitũ o na hinya witũ, o we ũteithio witũ hĩndĩ ya mathĩĩna.
“For the leader of the music. Of, or for, the sons of Korah. To be sung in the manner, or with the voice, of virgins.” God is our refuge and strength; An ever present help in trouble.
2 Tondũ ũcio tũtingĩĩtigĩra, o na thĩ ĩngĩthingitha, na irĩma igwe iria-inĩ,
Therefore will we not fear, though the earth be changed; Though the mountains tremble in the heart of the sea;
3 o na maaĩ marĩo mangĩruruma na mahũyũke, nginya irĩma igathingithio nĩ nditi yamo.
Though its waters roar and be troubled, And the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Pause)
4 Nĩ kũrĩ rũũĩ rũrĩa tũrũũĩ twaruo tũkenagia itũũra rĩa Ngai, gĩikaro kĩu kĩamũre kĩa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.
A river with its streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy dwelling-place of the Most High.
5 Ngai arĩ kũu thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩu, na rĩtikenyenyeka; Ngai nĩwe ũkaarĩteithia kĩrooko gũgĩkĩa.
God is the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her, and that full early.
6 Ndũrĩrĩ nĩiraronja, namo mothamaki makenyenya; nake agũũthũka-rĩ, thĩ ĩgatweka.
The nations raged; kingdoms were moved; He uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe arĩ hamwe na ithuĩ; Ngai wa Jakubu nĩwe kĩirigo giitũ kĩa hinya.
The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Pause)
8 Ũkai muone ciĩko iria Jehova ekĩte, ũkai muone ũrĩa akirĩtie thĩ ihooru.
Come, behold the doings of the LORD; What desolations he hath made in the earth!
9 Aniinaga mbaara nginya ituri cia thĩ; oinaga ũta na agathethera itimũ, na agacina ngo na mwaki.
He causeth wars to cease to the end of the earth; He hath broken the bow, and snapped the spear asunder, And burned the chariots in fire.
10 “Hoorerai, na mũmenye atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Ngai; nĩngatũũgĩrio ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, na ndũũgĩrio thĩ yothe.”
“Desist, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted throughout the earth!”
11 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe arĩ hamwe na ithuĩ; Ngai wa Jakubu nĩwe kĩirigo giitũ kĩa hinya.
The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.
