< Thaburi 66 >
1 Rwĩmbo rwa Thaburi Anĩrĩrai Ngai mũkenete mũrĩ mbere ya Jehova, inyuĩ andũ othe a thĩ!
Unto the end, a canticle of a psalm of the resurrection. Shout with joy to God, all the earth,
2 Inai mũrahe riiri wa rĩĩtwa rĩake; gũkumio gwake tũmai kũgĩe na riiri!
Sing ye a psalm to his name; give glory to his praise.
3 Ĩrai Ngai atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ciĩko ciaku nĩ cia magegania-ĩ! Ũhoti waku nĩ mũnene mũno nginya ũgatũma thũ ciaku ciĩhetage nĩ guoya irĩ mbere yaku.
Say unto God, How terrible are thy works, O Lord! in the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee.
4 Andũ othe a thĩ nĩwe mainamagĩrĩra; mainaga magakũgooca, mainaga makagooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
Let all the earth adore thee, and sing to thee: let it sing a psalm to thy name.
5 Ũkai muone ũrĩa Ngai ekĩte, maũndũ marĩa ekagĩra andũ matikĩrĩ ma kũmakania!
Come and see the works of God; who is terrible in his counsels over the sons of men.
6 Aagarũrire iria rĩgĩtuĩka thĩ nyũmũ, nao andũ makĩhĩtũkĩra kũu maaĩ-inĩ na magũrũ; ũkai, tũmũkenere.
Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.
7 Nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wake, egũtũũra aathanaga nginya tene, maitho make maikaraga marorete ndũrĩrĩ, nĩguo andũ arĩa aremi matikagerie kũmũũkĩrĩra.
Who by his power ruleth for ever: his eyes behold the nations; let not them that provoke him he exalted in themselves.
8 Goocai Ngai witũ, inyuĩ andũ a ndũrĩrĩ, mũgambo wake wa kũmũgooca nĩũiguĩke;
O bless our God, ye Gentiles: and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 nĩatũtũũrĩtie muoyo na akagirĩrĩria magũrũ maitũ matirũke.
Who hath set my soul to live: and hath not suffered my feet to be moved:
10 Nĩgũkorwo Wee Ngai nĩũtũgeretie; ũtũtheragia ta ũrĩa betha ĩtheragio na mwaki.
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us by fire, as silver is tried.
11 Nĩwatũmire tũtwarwo njeera na ũgĩtũkuuithia mĩrigo mĩritũ.
Thou hast brought us into a net, thou hast laid afflictions on our back:
12 Warekire andũ matũikarĩre mĩtwe; twagĩtuĩkanirie mwaki-inĩ o na maaĩ-inĩ, no ũgĩcooka ũgĩtũrehe kũndũ kũrĩ bũthi.
Thou hast set men over our heads. We have passed through tire and water, and thou hast brought us out into a refreshment.
13 Nĩngũũka hekarũ-inĩ yaku ndĩ na maruta ma njino, nĩguo hingie mĩĩhĩtwa yakwa harĩwe,
I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
14 mĩĩhĩtwa ĩrĩa mĩromo yakwa yeranĩire, na ngĩmĩaria na kanua gakwa, rĩrĩa ndaarĩ thĩĩna-inĩ.
Which my lips have uttered, And my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 Ngũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa nyamũ iria noru, na ndute iruta rĩa ndũrũme; ngũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa ndegwa na mbũri.
I will offer up to thee holocausts full of marrow, with burnt offerings of rams: I will offer to thee bullocks with goats.
16 Ũkai mũthikĩrĩrie inyuothe arĩa mwĩtigĩrĩte Ngai; rekei ndĩmũhe ũhoro wa ũrĩa anjĩkĩire.
Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what great things he hath done for my soul.
17 Ndamũkaĩire na kanua gakwa, ngĩmũgooca na rũrĩmĩ rwakwa.
I cried to him with my mouth: and I extolled him with my tongue.
18 Korwo ndaarĩ na mehia ngoro-inĩ yakwa-rĩ, Mwathani ndangĩanjiguire;
If I have looked at iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.
19 no ti-itherũ Ngai nĩathikĩrĩirie, na akĩigua mũgambo wakwa ngĩmũhooya.
Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.
20 Ngai arogoocwo, o we ũtaaregire kũigua ihooya rĩakwa, o na kana akĩaga kũnyonia wendo wake!
Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
