Thaburi 5
1 Thaburi ya Daudi Wee Jehova, igua ciugo ciakwa, na ũigue gũcaaya gwakwa.
For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by the flute. Hear my words, Lord: give heed to my whisper.
2 Thikĩrĩria ngĩgũkaĩra ũndeithie, Mũthamaki wakwa na Ngai wakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe ndĩrahooya.
Attend to my loud cry for help, my king and my God.
3 Wee Jehova-rĩ, o rũciinĩ ũrĩiguaga mũgambo wakwa; o kĩrooko ndĩrĩigaga mabataro makwa mbere yaku, na ngeterera macookio ndĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
When I pray to you, Lord, in the morning, hear my voice. I make ready for you in the morning, and look for a sign.
4 Nĩgũkorwo Wee ndũrĩ Mũrungu wa gũkenera ũũru; ningĩ andũ arĩa aaganu ndũngĩtũũrania nao.
For you are no God who takes pleasure in wickedness: no one of evil can be your guest.
5 Andũ arĩa etĩĩi matingĩrũgama mbere yaku; andũ arĩa othe mekaga maũndũ mooru nĩũmathũire.
No braggarts can stand in your presence, you hate all workers of wrong.
6 Andũ arĩa maaragia maheeni nĩũmaniinaga; nao arĩa maitaga thakame na makaheenania, Jehova nĩamathũire.
You destroy all speakers of lies, people of blood and deceit you abhor.
7 No niĩ-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciaku nyingĩ, nĩngũũka ndoonye nyũmba yaku; ndĩnyiihĩtie nyinamĩrĩre ndorete hekarũ-inĩ yaku theru.
But I, through your kindness abundant, may enter your house, and towards the shrine of your temple may reverently bow.
8 Wee Jehova-rĩ, ndongoria na ũthingu waku; nĩ ũndũ wa thũ ciakwa-rĩ, rũngaria njĩra yaku mbere yakwa.
Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way level before me.
9 Tũnua twacio tũtiaragia ũhoro ũngĩĩhokwo; ngoro ciacio ciyũrĩte mwanangĩko. Mĩmero yacio nĩ ta mbĩrĩra ngunũre; ciaragia maheeni na rũrĩmĩ rwacio.
For their mouth is a stranger to truth, their heart is a pit of destruction. Their throat is a wide open grave, their tongue the smooth tongue of the hypocrite.
10 Wee Ngai, matue nĩmahĩtĩtie! Reke magũithio nĩ mĩbango ĩyo yao ya ungumania. Maingate nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao maingĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmakũremeire.
Condemn them, God; let their schemes bring them down to the ground. For their numberless crimes thrust them down for playing the rebel against you.
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 who take refuge in you ring out their gladness forever. Protect those who love your name, so they may exult in you.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ti-itherũ Wee Jehova nĩũrathimaga andũ arĩa athingu; ũtũũraga ũmairigĩire na wega waku taarĩ ngo.
For you give your blessing, Lord, to the godly, and the shield of your favor protects them.
