Thaburi 89
1 Thaburi ya Ethani wa mbarĩ ya Ezara Ngũtũũra nyinaga ũhoro wa wendo mũnene wa Jehova nginya tene; ndĩrĩmenyithanagia wĩhokeku waku na kanua gakwa kũrĩ njiarwa na njiarwa.
I will sing of the mercies of YHWH for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
2 Nĩngumbũra atĩ wendo waku ũtũũraga ũrĩ mũrũmu nginya tene, nyumbũre atĩ wĩhokeku waku nĩũũhaandĩte o kũu igũrũ.
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.
3 Woigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩngĩte kĩrĩkanĩro na ũrĩa niĩ ndĩthuurĩire, na ngeehĩta na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi ndungata yakwa ngamwĩra atĩrĩ,
I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4 ‘Nĩngatũma rũciaro rwaku rũtũũre rwĩhaandĩte nginya tene, na ndũme gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu njiarwa na njiarwa.’”
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. (Selah)
5 Wee Jehova-rĩ, igũrũ nĩrĩkumagia magegania maku, na rĩkagaathĩrĩria wĩhokeku waku o naguo, kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa acio atheru.
And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O YHWH: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
6 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, kũu matu-inĩ igũrũ nũũ ũngĩgerekanio na Jehova? Nũũ ũkĩhaana ta Jehova harĩ ciũmbe iria irĩ igũrũ?
For who in the heaven can be compared unto YHWH? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto YHWH?
7 Kĩama-inĩ kĩa acio atheru, Mũrungu nĩetigĩrĩtwo mũno; nĩ wa gwĩtigĩrwo gũkĩra arĩa othe mamũrigiicĩirie.
El is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8 Wee Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nũũ ũkĩhaana tawe? Wee Jehova, nĩ ũrĩ hinya, na wĩhokeku waku ũtũũraga ũkũrigiicĩirie.
O YHWH Elohim of hosts, who is strong like unto thee, O YAH? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?
9 Nĩwe wathaga kĩhuhũkanio kĩa iria rĩrĩa inene; rĩrĩa makũmbĩ marĩo mookĩra na igũrũ, nĩũmahooreragia.
Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.
10 Wahehenjire Rahabu agĩtuĩka o ta ũmwe wa arĩa moragĩtwo; wahurunjire thũ ciaku na guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya.
Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.
11 Igũrũ nĩ rĩaku, o na thĩ no yaku; Wee nĩwe wombire thĩ na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
12 Nĩwe wombire mwena wa gathigathini na wa gũthini; Taboru na Herimoni ciinaga ikenete nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13 Gĩcoka gĩaku nĩ kĩrĩ ũhoti; guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya, guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo nĩgũtũgĩrie.
Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.
14 Ũthingu na kĩhooto nĩcio mũthingi wa gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene; wendo na wĩhokeku nĩigũtongoragia.
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
15 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩa mooĩ gũkũgooca na nyĩmbo, o arĩa mathiiaga na ũtheri waku, Wee Jehova.
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O YHWH, in the light of thy countenance.
16 Makenagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku mũthenya wothe; magũtũũgagĩria nĩ ũndũ wa ũthingu waku.
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 Nĩgũkorwo Wee nĩwe riiri na hinya wao, na tondũ wa ũtugi waku nĩũtũũgagĩria rũhĩa rwitũ.
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 Ti-itherũ, ngo iitũ ĩrĩ na Jehova, mũthamaki witũ nĩ wa Ũrĩa-Mũtheru-wa-Isiraeli.
For YHWH is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩmwe nĩwaririe na njĩra ya kĩoneki, ũkĩĩra andũ aku arĩa ehokeku atĩrĩ, “Nĩheete njamba ĩmwe ya ita hinya; nĩndũgĩrĩtie mwanake gatagatĩ ka andũ.
Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
20 Nĩndĩĩoneire Daudi ndungata yakwa; nĩndĩmũitĩrĩirie maguta makwa maamũre.
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 Guoko gwakwa nĩkũrĩmũtiiragĩrĩra; ti-itherũ gĩcoka gĩakwa nĩkĩrĩmwĩkagĩra hinya.
With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22 Gũtirĩ thũ ĩkaamwĩtia igooti. gũtirĩ mũndũ mwaganu ũkaamũhinyĩrĩria.
The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 Nĩngahehenja thũ ciake mbere yake, na njũrage arĩa othe mamũthũire.
And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24 Wendo wakwa wa kwĩhokeka ũrĩkoragwo hamwe nake, na nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rũhĩa rwake nĩrũrĩtũũgagĩrio.
But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 Nĩngatambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ rĩa iria, na guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo ndĩkũige igũrũ rĩa njũũĩ.
I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 Nĩakanjĩta anjĩĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Wee nĩwe Baba, na Mũrungu wakwa, o Rwaro rwa Ihiga, Mũhonokia wakwa.’
He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my El, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Ningĩ nĩngamwamũra atuĩke irigithathi rĩakwa, na ndũme atũũgĩrio gũkĩra athamaki a thĩ.
Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28 Nĩngũtũũria wendo wakwa harĩ we nginya tene, na kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nake gĩtũũre kĩrĩ gĩa kwĩhokeka.
My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29 Nĩngahaanda rũciaro rwake nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene ndĩkĩhaande rĩrĩa rĩothe igũrũ rĩgũtũũra.
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 “Ariũ ake mangĩgatirika watho wakwa na mage kũrũmĩrĩra kĩrĩra gĩakwa,
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 mangĩgathũkia kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na mage kũmenyerera maathani makwa,
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 nĩngaherithia wĩhia wao na rũthanju, herithie waganu wao na kũmahũũra iboko;
Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 no ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaamwehereria wendo wakwa, o na kana thaahie wĩhokeku wakwa o na rĩ.
Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 Ndigathũkia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa kana ngarũrĩre ũrĩa iromo ciakwa ciarĩtie.
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35 Nĩndĩhĩtĩte ngĩgwetaga ũtheru wakwa, rĩmwe rĩa kũigana, na ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaaheenia Daudi,
Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36 atĩ rũciaro rwake rũgũtũũra nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu mbere yakwa ta riũa;
His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 gĩgũtũũra kĩrĩ kĩrũmu nginya tene o ta mweri, mũira ũrĩa ũrĩ matu-inĩ nĩ mwĩhokeku.”
It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. (Selah)
38 No rĩrĩ, wee nĩũregete, na ũgatiganĩria, o na ũgakĩrakarĩra ũcio ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
39 Wee nĩũkanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ũrĩkanĩire na ndungata yaku, na ũkarangĩrĩria thũmbĩ yake rũkũngũ-inĩ.
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40 Wee ũmomorete thingo ciake ciothe na ũkaananga ciĩhitho ciake iria cia hinya.
Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
41 Ehĩtũkĩri othe nĩmatahĩte indo ciake; atuĩkĩte wa kũnyararwo nĩ andũ arĩa mariganĩtie nake.
All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
42 Wee nĩũtũũgĩrĩtie guoko kwa ũrĩo kwa arĩa mamũthũire; nĩũtũmĩte thũ ciake ciothe ikene.
Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 Ũũgĩ wa rũhiũ rwake rwa njora nĩũũhũndũrĩte, na ũkaaga kũmũteithĩrĩria mbaara-inĩ.
Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
44 Nĩũniinĩte riiri wake ũgathira, na ũgaikania gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene thĩ.
Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45 Nĩũnyiihĩtie matukũ ma wĩthĩ wake; ũmũhumbĩte thoni o ta nguo.
The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. (Selah)
46 Nĩ nginya rĩ, Wee Jehova? Ũgũtũũra wĩhithĩte nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ mangʼũrĩ maku megũtũũra maakanĩte ta mwaki?
How long, YHWH? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
47 Ririkana ũrĩa mũtũũrĩre wakwa ũrĩ wa gũthira o narua. Kaĩ akĩrĩ ũndũ wa tũhũ watũmire ũmbe andũ othe!
Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
48 Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ ũngĩtũũra muoyo na ndonane na gĩkuũ, kana ehonokie kuuma kũrĩ hinya wa mbĩrĩra? (Sheol h7585)
What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Wee Mwathani, wendo waku mũnene ũrĩa wa tene ũkĩrĩ kũ, ũrĩa wehĩtire, ũkĩĩrĩra Daudi na ũndũ wa wĩhokeku waku?
YHWH, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
50 Mwathani, ririkana ũrĩa ndungata yaku ĩnyũrũrĩtio, na ũrĩa nyũmĩrĩirie irumi iria numĩtwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ngoro-inĩ yakwa,
Remember, YHWH, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
51 o irumi iria thũ ciaku iinyũrũrĩtie nacio, Wee Jehova, iria itũire inyũrũrĩtie makinya ma ũrĩa wee ũitĩrĩirie maguta nacio.
Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O YHWH; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
52 Jehova arogoocwo nginya tene!
Blessed be YHWH for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
