1 Thaburi ya Asafu Wee Mũrĩithi wa Isiraeli, tũigue, o Wee ũtongoragia Jusufu ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi atongoragia rũũru; Wee ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gatagatĩ ka makerubi-rĩ, cangarara
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] TO “LILIES OF TESTIMONY.” A PSALM OF ASAPH. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, Leading Joseph as a flock, Inhabiting the cherubim—shine forth,
2 ũrĩ mbere ya Efiraimu, na Benjamini, na Manase. Arahũra ũhoti waku, ũũke ũtũhonokie.
Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Your might, and come for our salvation.
3 Wee Ngai-rĩ, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
O God, cause us to turn back, And cause Your face to shine, and we are saved.
4 Wee Jehova Ngai mwene hinya wothe, marakara maku megũtooga nginya rĩ ũgĩũkĩrĩra mahooya ma andũ aku?
YHWH, God of Hosts, until when? You have burned against the prayer of Your people.
5 Nĩũmahũũnĩtie na irio cia maithori; ũtũmĩte manyue maithori maiyũrĩte mbakũri riita.
You have caused them to eat bread of tears, And cause them to drink With tears a third time.
6 Ũtũtuĩte kĩndũ gĩa kũrũagĩrwo nĩ arĩa tũriganĩtie nao, nacio thũ ciitũ igatũnyũrũria.
You make us a strife to our neighbors, And our enemies mock at it.
7 Wee Ngai-Mwene-Hinya-Wothe-rĩ, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
God of Hosts, turn us back, And cause Your face to shine, and we are saved.
8 Wareehire mũthabibũ kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri; warutũrũrire ndũrĩrĩ ũkĩũhaanda arĩ guo.
You bring a vine out of Egypt, You cast out nations, and plant it.
9 Nĩwaũthereirie mũgũnda, naguo ũkĩgwata, na ũkĩiyũra bũrũri wothe.
You have looked before it, and root it, And it fills the land,
10 Irĩma nĩciahumbĩrirwo nĩ kĩĩruru kĩaguo, nayo mĩtarakwa ĩrĩa mĩnene ĩkĩhumbĩrwo nĩ honge ciaguo.
Hills have been covered [with] its shadow, And its boughs [are] cedars of God.
11 Watambũrũkirie honge ciaguo o nginya Iria-inĩ rĩrĩa Inene, na thuuna ciaguo ũgĩcikinyia o nginya Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Farati.
It sends forth its branches to the sea, And its shoots to the river.
12 Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũmomore njirigo ciaguo, ũgagĩtũma ehĩtũkĩri othe matuage thabibũ ciaguo?
Why have You broken down its hedges, And everyone passing by the way has plucked it?
13 Ũrangarangagwo nĩ ngũrwe cia gĩthaka, na ũkarĩĩo nĩ nyamũ cia werũ-inĩ.
A boar out of the forest tears it, And a wild beast of the fields grazes it.
14 Wee Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, tũcookerere! Rora ũrĩ igũrũ wone! Rũmbũiya mũthabibũ ũyũ,
God of Hosts, turn back, we implore You, Look from the heavens, and see, and inspect this vine,
15 mũri ũrĩa guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo kwahaandire, mũriũ ũrĩa wee mwene wĩrereire.
And the root that Your right hand planted, And the branch You made strong for Yourself,
16 Mũthabibũ waku nĩũtemetwo, ũgacinwo na mwaki; thũ ciaku irothira nĩ ũndũ wa irũithia rĩaku.
Burned with fire—cut down, They perish from the rebuke of Your face.
17 Guoko gwaku kũroikara na mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo, ũcio mũrũ wa mũndũ wĩrereire wee mwene.
Let Your hand be on the man of Your right hand On the son of man You have strengthened for Yourself.
18 No ithuĩ-rĩ, tũtigatigana nawe o rĩ; tũrurumũkie na nĩtũrĩkayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
And we do not go back from You, You revive us, and in Your Name we call.
19 Wee Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ; tũma ũthiũ waku ũtwarĩre, nĩguo tũhonoke.
O YHWH, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Your face to shine, and we are saved!
