< Thaburi 5 >

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, igua ciugo ciakwa, na ũigue gũcaaya gwakwa.
For the Leader; upon the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
2 Thikĩrĩria ngĩgũkaĩra ũndeithie, Mũthamaki wakwa na Ngai wakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ndĩrahooya.
Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; for unto 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 LORD, in the morning shalt Thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order my prayer unto Thee, and will look forward.
4 Nĩgũkorwo Wee ndũrĩ Mũrungu wa gũkenera ũũru; ningĩ andũ arĩa aaganu ndũngĩtũũrania nao.
For Thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with Thee.
5 Andũ arĩa etĩĩi matingĩrũgama mbere yaku; andũ arĩa othe mekaga maũndũ mooru nĩũmathũire.
The boasters shall not stand in Thy sight; Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Andũ arĩa maaragia maheeni nĩũmaniinaga; nao arĩa maitaga thakame na makaheenania, Jehova nĩamathũire.
Thou destroyest them that speak falsehood; the LORD abhorreth the man of blood and of deceit.
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 lovingkindness will I come into Thy house; I will bow down toward Thy holy temple in the fear of Thee.
8 Wee Jehova-rĩ, ndongoria na ũthingu waku; nĩ ũndũ wa thũ ciakwa-rĩ, rũngaria njĩra yaku mbere yakwa.
O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; 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 sincerity in their mouth; their inward part is a yawning gulf, their throat is an open sepulchre; they make smooth their tongue.
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; cast them down 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.
So shall all those that take refuge in Thee rejoice, they shall ever shout for joy, and Thou shalt shelter them; let them also that love Thy name exult in Thee.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ti-itherũ Wee Jehova nĩũrathimaga andũ arĩa athingu; ũtũũraga ũmairigĩire na wega waku taarĩ ngo.
For Thou dost bless the righteous; O LORD, Thou dost encompass him with favour as with a shield.
