< Thaburi 5 >

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, igua ciugo ciakwa, na ũigue gũcaaya gwakwa.
Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my (meditation)
2 Thikĩrĩria ngĩgũkaĩra ũndeithie, Mũthamaki wakwa na Ngai wakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ndĩrahooya.
Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for to thee do I pray.
3 Wee Jehova-rĩ, o rũciinĩ ũrĩiguaga mũgambo wakwa; o kĩrooko ndĩrĩigaga mabataro makwa mbere yaku, na ngeterera macookio ndĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
O Jehovah, in the morning thou shall hear my voice. In the morning I will direct to thee, and will keep watch.
4 Nĩgũkorwo Wee ndũrĩ Mũrungu wa gũkenera ũũru; ningĩ andũ arĩa aaganu ndũngĩtũũrania nao.
For thou are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil shall not sojourn with thee.
5 Andũ arĩa etĩĩi matingĩrũgama mbere yaku; andũ arĩa othe mekaga maũndũ mooru nĩũmathũire.
The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight. Thou hate all workers of iniquity.
6 Andũ arĩa maaragia maheeni nĩũmaniinaga; nao arĩa maitaga thakame na makaheenania, Jehova nĩamathũire.
Thou will destroy those who speak lies. Jehovah abhors the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.
7 No niĩ-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciaku nyingĩ, nĩngũũka ndoonye nyũmba yaku; ndĩnyiihĩtie nyinamĩrĩre ndorete hekarũ-inĩ yaku theru.
But as for me, in the abundance of thy loving kindness I will come into thy house. In thy fear I will worship toward thy holy temple.
8 Wee Jehova-rĩ, ndongoria na ũthingu waku; nĩ ũndũ wa thũ ciakwa-rĩ, rũngaria njĩra yaku mbere yakwa.
Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of my enemies. Make thy way straight before my face.
9 Tũnua twacio tũtiaragia ũhoro ũngĩĩhokwo; ngoro ciacio ciyũrĩte mwanangĩko. Mĩmero yacio nĩ ta mbĩrĩra ngunũre; ciaragia maheeni na rũrĩmĩ rwacio.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth. Their inward part is very wickedness. Their throat is an open sepulcher. With their tongue they deceive.
10 Wee Ngai, matue nĩmahĩtĩtie! Reke magũithio nĩ mĩbango ĩyo yao ya ungumania. Maingate nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao maingĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmakũremeire.
Hold them guilty, O God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions. For they have rebelled against thee.
11 No rĩrĩ, reke arĩa moragĩra harĩwe makene; nĩmarekwo mainage hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ gũkena. Tambũrũkia ũgitĩri waku igũrũ rĩao, nĩguo arĩa mendete rĩĩtwa rĩaku magũkenagĩre.
But let all those who take refuge in thee rejoice. Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defend them. Let those also who love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ti-itherũ Wee Jehova nĩũrathimaga andũ arĩa athingu; ũtũũraga ũmairigĩire na wega waku taarĩ ngo.
For thou will bless the righteous man, O Jehovah. Thou will encompass him with favor as with a shield. (Selah)
