1 Thaburi ya Solomoni Wee Ngai, he mũthamaki ũhoti wa gũtuuanagĩra ciira na kĩhooto, na mũrũ wa mũthamaki ũkĩmũhe ũthingu waku.
A psalm on Solomon.
2 Nake nĩarĩciiragĩra andũ aku na ũthingu, andũ aku arĩa anyamaarĩku amatuagĩre ciira na kĩhooto.
Give to the king thy judgment, O God: and to the king’s son thy justice: To judge thy people with justice, and thy poor with judgment.
3 Irĩma igaatũmaga andũ magaacĩre, natuo tũrĩma tũciarage matunda ma ũthingu.
Let the mountains receive peace for the people: and the hills justice.
4 Nĩarĩgitagĩra andũ arĩa anyamaarĩku gatagatĩ ka andũ, na ahonokie ciana cia arĩa abatari; nĩakahehenja arĩa mamahinyagĩrĩria.
He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: and he shall humble the oppressor.
5 Mũthamaki arotũũra hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe riũa rĩgũtũũra, na rĩrĩa rĩothe mweri ũgũtũũra nginya njiarwa na njiarwa.
And he shall continue with the sun, and before the moon, throughout all generations.
6 Arĩhaanaga ta mbura ĩkiurĩra mũgũnda mũtũgũte, ahaane ta rũthuthuũ ũrĩa rũihũgagia thĩ.
He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; and as showers falling gently upon the earth.
7 Matukũ-inĩ make andũ arĩa athingu nĩmagatheerema; naguo ũgaacĩru ũingĩhe o nginya rĩrĩa mweri ũgaakorwo ũtarĩ ho.
In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken sway.
8 Agaathanaga kuuma iria rĩmwe nginya rĩrĩa rĩngĩ, na kuuma Rũũĩ rwa Farati o nginya ituri cia thĩ.
And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9 Ndũrĩrĩ cia werũ-inĩ nĩikainamĩrĩra mbere yake, nacio thũ ciake icũne rũkũngũ.
Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.
10 Athamaki a Tarishishi na a mabũrũri marĩa marĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia kũraya nĩmakamũrehagĩra igooti; nao athamaki a Sheba na Seba nĩmakamũrehagĩra iheo.
The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:
11 Athamaki othe makaamũinamĩrĩra, nacio ndũrĩrĩ ciothe imũtungatagĩre.
And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.
12 Nĩgũkorwo nĩakahonokia abatari maamũkaĩra, o na arĩa anyamaarie matarĩ na wa kũmateithia.
For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.
13 Nĩakaiguagĩra tha arĩa matarĩ hinya na arĩa abatari, na ahonokie arĩa athĩĩni kuuma kũrĩ gĩkuũ.
He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.
14 Nĩakamateithũra kuuma kũrĩ arĩa mamahinyagĩrĩria na kuuma haaro-inĩ, nĩgũkorwo thakame yao ĩrĩ bata mũno maitho-inĩ make.
He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.
15 Arogĩtũũra hĩndĩ ndaaya! Aroheagwo thahabu ya kuuma Sheba. Arotũũra ahooyagĩrwo nĩ andũ hĩndĩ ciothe, na mamũrathimage mũthenya wothe.
And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.
16 Bũrũri ũrogĩa na bũthi wa ngano kũndũ guothe; ĩrorirũkĩra tũrĩma-igũrũ. Maciaro makuo marothegea ta ma Lebanoni; nakuo matũũra-inĩ andũ marotheerema ta nyeki ya gĩthaka.
And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.
17 Rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩrotũũra nginya tene; rĩrotũũra o ta ũrĩa riũa rĩgũtũũra. Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩikarathimwo nĩ ũndũ wake, nacio imwĩtage mũndũ mũrathime.
Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.
18 Goocai Jehova Ngai, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, o we wiki wĩkaga maũndũ ma magegania.
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone doth wonderful things.
19 Rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩu rĩrĩ riiri rĩrogoocagwo nginya tene; nayo thĩ yothe ĩroiyũrwo nĩ riiri wake.
And blessed be the name of his majesty for ever: and the whole earth shall be filled with his majesty. So be it. So be it.
20 Ũcio nĩguo mũthia wa mahooya ma Daudi, mũrũ wa Jesii.
The praises of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.
