Thaburi 77
1 Thaburi ya Asafu Ndakaĩire Ngai andeithie; ndakaĩire Ngai nĩguo anjigue.
I cried unto Elohim with my voice, even unto Elohim with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
2 Rĩrĩa ndaarĩ mĩnyamaro-inĩ, nĩ Mwathani ndarongoririe; ũtukũ ndamwambararĩirie moko itekũnoga, no muoyo wakwa ũkĩrega kũhoorerio.
In the day of my trouble I sought YHWH: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
3 Wee Ngai, ndakũririkanire ngĩcaaya; ndataranirie maũndũ, naguo roho wakwa ũkĩringĩka.
I remembered Elohim, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 Wee watũmire njũrwo nĩ toro, ngĩthĩĩnĩka mũno, ngĩremwo nĩ kwaria.
Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 Ndeciiririe ũhoro wa matukũ ma tene, ngĩririkana mĩaka o ĩrĩa yarĩ ya tene;
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 ngĩkĩĩririkania ũrĩa ndainaga ũtukũ, ngoro yakwa ĩgĩtarania maũndũ, naguo roho wakwa ũkĩyũũria atĩrĩ:
I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
7 “Mwathani egũtũũra atũregete nginya tene? Ndarĩ hĩndĩ agacooka gũtũkenera?
Will YHWH cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
8 Wendo wake ũtathiraga-rĩ, nĩkũbuĩria ũbuĩrĩtie nginya tene? Kĩĩranĩro gĩake gĩgũtũũra gĩtahingĩte nginya tene?
Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?
9 Kaĩ Mũrungu ariganĩirwo nĩkũiguanĩra tha? Kaĩ marakara make matũmĩte atige gũtugana?”
Hath El forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)
10 Ngĩcooka ngĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ngwĩtiiria naguo: kũririkana mĩaka ya guoko kwa ũrĩo kwa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.”
And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.
11 Nĩngũririkana ciĩko cia Jehova; ĩĩ nĩguo, nĩngũririkana ciama ciaku cia tene.
I will remember the works of YAH: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12 Ndĩrĩtaranagia mawĩra maku mothe, na ngecũũrania ũhoro wa ciĩko ciaku cia hinya.
I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13 Njĩra ciaku, Wee Ngai, nĩ theru. Nĩ ngai ĩrĩkũ nene ta Ngai witũ?
Thy way, O Elohim, is in the sanctuary: who is so great an El as our Elohim?
14 Wee nĩwe Mũrungu ũrĩa ũringaga ciama; wonanagia ũhoti waku kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ.
Thou art the El that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15 Nĩwakũũrire andũ aku na guoko gwaku kwa hinya, o acio njiaro cia Jakubu na Jusufu.
Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Maaĩ nĩmakuonire, Wee Ngai, maaĩ macio maakuonire makĩigua guoya, nakuo kũrĩa kũriku mũno gũkĩĩnyogonda.
The waters saw thee, O Elohim, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17 Matu mooiririe mbura, nacio ngwa ikĩruruma igũrũ guothe; heni ciahenũkire ikĩrathũka mĩena yothe
The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18 Ngwa yaku yaiguĩkanire kĩhuhũkanio-inĩ, rũheni rwaku rũkĩmũrĩka thĩ yothe, nayo thĩ ĩkĩinaina na ĩgĩthingitha.
The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19 Njĩra yaku yatuĩkanĩirie iria-inĩ, njĩra yaku ĩgĩtuĩkanĩria maaĩ-inĩ maingĩ, o na gũtuĩka makinya maku mationekire.
Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20 Watongoririe andũ aku o ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi atongoragia rũũru, ũkĩmatongoria na guoko kwa Musa na kwa Harũni.
Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
