< Thaburi 85 >
1 Thaburi ya Ariũ a Kora Wee Jehova, nĩ wekire bũrũri waku wega; nĩwacookeirie Jakubu ũtonga wake.
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. You showed favor to Your land, O LORD; You restored Jacob from captivity.
2 Nĩwarekeire andũ aku waganu wao, na ũkĩhumbĩra mehia mao mothe.
You forgave the iniquity of Your people; You covered all their sin.
3 Nĩweheririe mangʼũrĩ maku mothe, na ũgĩthirwo nĩ marakara maku mahiũ.
You withheld all Your fury; You turned from Your burning anger.
4 Tũma tũgaacĩre rĩngĩ, Wee Ngai Mũhonokia witũ, na ũtige gũikara ũtũrakarĩire.
Restore us, O God of our salvation, and put away Your displeasure toward us.
5 Ũgũtũũra ũtũrakarĩire nginya tene? Marakara maku megũkinyĩra njiarwa na njiarwa?
Will You be angry with us forever? Will You draw out Your anger to all generations?
6 Kaĩ ũtangĩtũrurumũkia ngoro ciitũ, nĩguo andũ aku magũkenere?
Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?
7 Wee Jehova-rĩ, tuonie wendo waku ũrĩa ũtathiraga, na ũtũhe ũhonokio waku.
Show us Your loving devotion, O LORD, and grant us Your salvation.
8 Nĩngũthikĩrĩria njigue ũrĩa Mũrungu, o we Jehova, ekuuga; eranagĩra thayũ kũrĩ andũ ake, o acio ake aamũre: no ndũkareke macookerere ũrimũ wao.
I will listen to what God the LORD will say; for He will surely speak peace to His people and His saints; He will not let them return to folly.
9 Ti-itherũ ũhonokio wake ũrĩ hakuhĩ na arĩa mamwĩtigĩrĩte, nĩgeetha riiri wake ũtũũre bũrũri-inĩ witũ.
Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, that His glory may dwell in our land.
10 Wendo na wĩhokeku nĩicemanĩtie; ũthingu na thayũ nĩikĩmumunyanĩte.
Loving devotion and faithfulness have joined together; righteousness and peace have kissed.
11 Wĩhokeku ũkunũkaga kuuma na thĩ, naguo ũthingu ũcũthagĩrĩrie ũrĩ o igũrũ.
Faithfulness sprouts from the earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven.
12 Ti-itherũ Jehova no aheane kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩega, naguo bũrũri witũ ũciarage magetha maguo.
The LORD will indeed provide what is good, and our land will yield its increase.
13 Ũthingu nĩguo ũmũthiiaga mbere, ũkahaaragĩria makinya make njĩra.
Righteousness will go before Him to prepare the way for His steps.
