< Thaburi 76 >

1 Thaburi ya Asafu Kũu Juda Ngai nĩoĩkaine; rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩ inene thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A song. God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.
2 Hema yake ĩrĩ kũu Salemu, gĩikaro gĩake kĩrĩ Zayuni.
His tent is in Salem, His dwelling place in Zion.
3 Kũu nĩkuo oinangĩire mĩguĩ ya ũta ĩkũhenia, akiunanga ngo na hiũ ciao cia njora, o na indo ciao ciothe cia mbaara.
There He shattered the flaming arrows, the shield and sword and weapons of war.
4 Wee ũcangararĩte nĩ ũtheri, ũkagĩa na ũkaru gũkĩra irĩma irĩ na ũtonga wa nyamũ cia iguĩma.
You are resplendent with light, more majestic than mountains filled with game.
5 Andũ arĩa njamba magwĩte magatunywo indo, magakoma toro wao wa gĩkuũ; gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wa njamba cia ita ũngĩambararia moko make.
The valiant lie plundered; they sleep their last sleep. No men of might could lift a hand.
6 Nĩ ũndũ wa ikũũma rĩaku, Wee Ngai wa Jakubu, mbarathi o ũndũ ũmwe na ngaari cia ita igwĩte thĩ ikaaga kwĩigua.
At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both horse and rider lie stunned.
7 Wee nowe wa gwĩtigĩrwo. Nũũ ũngĩrũgama mbere yaku rĩrĩa ũrĩ mũrakaru?
You alone are to be feared. When You are angry, who can stand before You?
8 Wamenyithanirie itua rĩaku ũrĩ o kũu igũrũ, nayo thĩ ĩgĩĩtigĩra na ĩgĩkira ki,
From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still
9 rĩrĩa Wee Ngai, warũgamire ũtuanĩre ciira, nĩguo ũhonokie arĩa othe anyamaarĩku a bũrũri.
when God rose up to judge, to save all the lowly of the earth.
10 Ti-itherũ mangʼũrĩ ma andũ nĩmagakũgoocithia, na ũkeyoha matigari ma mangʼũrĩ maku ta mũcibi.
Even the wrath of man shall praise You; with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself.
11 Mwĩhĩtei mĩĩhĩtwa harĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu na mũmĩhingie; rekei mabũrũri marĩa mothe mũriganĩtie namo marehere ũcio wa gwĩtigĩrwo iheo.
Make and fulfill your vows to the LORD your God; let all the neighboring lands bring tribute to Him who is to be feared.
12 Athuthaga roho wa arĩa maathanaga; etigagĩrwo nĩ athamaki a thĩ.
He breaks the spirits of princes; He is feared by the kings of the earth.
