Thaburi 62

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Ngoro yakwa yetagĩrĩra Ngai o we wiki; ũhonokio wakwa uumaga harĩ we.

Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David. Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.

2 O we wiki nĩwe rwaro rwakwa rwa ihiga na ũhonokio wakwa; nĩwe kĩirigo gĩakwa kĩa hinya, ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngenyenyeka.

For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.

3 Nĩ nginya rĩ mũgũtũũra mũtharĩkagĩra mũndũ? Mwamũũraga inyuothe, taarĩ rũthingo rũinamu kana rũirigo rũrenda kũgũa?

How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.

4 Nĩmatuĩte itua mamweherie ũnene-inĩ wake; makenagio nĩ maheeni. Marathimanaga na tũnua twao, no ngoro-inĩ ciao makarumana.

But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.

5 Wee ngoro yakwa, etha ũhurũko harĩ Ngai o we wiki, kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro gĩakwa kĩrĩ harĩ we.

But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.

6 O we wiki nĩwe rwaro rwakwa rwa ihiga na ũhonokio wakwa; nĩwe kĩirigo gĩakwa kĩa hinya ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngenyenyeka.

For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.

7 Ũhonokio wakwa na gĩtĩĩo gĩakwa ciumaga kũrĩ Ngai; nĩwe rwaro rwakwa rwa ihiga rũrĩ hinya, na rĩũrĩro rĩakwa.

In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

8 Inyuĩ andũ aya, mwĩhokagei o we hĩndĩ ciothe; itũrũragai ngoro cianyu harĩ we, nĩgũkorwo Ngai nĩwe rĩũrĩro riitũ.

Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.

9 Andũ arĩa matarĩ igweta no mĩhũmũ tu, na arĩa marĩ igweta no maheeni tu; mangĩthimwo na ratiri-rĩ, o no kĩndũ gĩa tũhũ; othe marĩ hamwe no mĩhũmũ mĩtheri.

But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.

10 Mũtikehoke ũtunyani kana mwĩtĩĩe na indo cia kũiya; o na ũtonga wanyu ũngĩingĩha-rĩ, mũtikawĩhoke.

Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

11 Harĩ ũndũ ũmwe Ngai oigĩte, o na nĩ maũndũ meerĩ njiguĩte: atĩ Wee Ngai, nĩ ũrĩ hinya,

God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God,

12 na atĩ Wee Mwathani, ũrĩ mwendani. Ti-itherũ nĩũkarĩha o mũndũ kũringana na wĩra wake.

And mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.
