Thaburi 90
1 Ihooya rĩa Musa, ndungata ya Ngai JEHOVA, nĩwe ũtũũrĩte ũrĩ gĩikaro giitũ kuuma njiarwa na njiarwa.
Lord, you have been our dwelling place for all generations.
2 O mbere ya irĩma kũgĩa kuo kana ũkĩũmba thĩ na mabũrũri, kuuma tene nginya tene, Wee ũrĩ o Mũrungu.
Before the mountains were born, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
3 Wee ũcookagia andũ magatuĩka rũkũngũ, ũkoiga atĩrĩ, “Cookai rũkũngũ-inĩ, inyuĩ ciana ici cia andũ.”
You turn man to destruction, saying, “Teshuvah ·Completely return·, you children of men.”
4 Nĩgũkorwo mĩaka ngiri harĩwe no ta mũthenya wa ira ũrĩa ũrahĩtũkire, kana ta ituanĩra rĩmwe rĩa arangĩri a ũtukũ.
For a thousand years in your sight are just like yester day, or a night watch.
5 Ũhaataga andũ, ũkameeheria, magakoma toro wa gĩkuũ; andũ mahaana ta nyeki ĩrĩa ĩringũkaga rũciinĩ:
You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.
6 o na gũtuĩka rũciinĩ nĩĩringũkaga, hwaĩ-inĩ ĩhoohaga, ĩkooma.
In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.
7 Tũniinagwo nĩ marakara maku, na tũkamakio mũno nĩ marũrũ maku.
For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.
8 Nĩũigĩte wĩhia witũ o mbere yaku, mehia maitũ marĩa mahithe ũkamoimĩria o ũtheri-inĩ hau mbere yaku.
You have set our depravities (moral evils) before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9 Matukũ maitũ mothe maniinagwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ maku; tũninũkagia mĩaka iitũ na gũcaaya.
For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10 Mũigana wa matukũ maitũ-rĩ, nĩ mĩaka mĩrongo mũgwanja, kana mĩrongo ĩnana, tũngĩkorwo tũrĩ na hinya; no rĩrĩ, mũigana wamo no thĩĩna na kĩeha, nĩgũkorwo mathiraga o narua, na ithuĩ tũgathiĩ, tũkabuĩria.
The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and vain striving of iniquity, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
11 Nũũ ũũĩ hinya wa marakara maku? Nĩgũkorwo mangʼũrĩ maku nĩ manene o ta gwĩtigĩrwo kũrĩa wagĩrĩire.
Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?
12 Tuonie gũtara matukũ maitũ wega, nĩgeetha tũgĩe na ngoro ya ũũgĩ.
So teach us to count our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13 Wee Jehova, hoorera! Nĩ nginya rĩ? Iguĩra ndungata ciaku tha.
Relent, Adonai! How long? Have compassion on your servants!
14 Rũciinĩ tũhũũnagie na wendo waku ũtathiraga, nĩguo tũinage nĩ gũkena na tũcanjamũkage matukũ maitũ mothe.
Satisfy us in the morning with your chesed ·loving-kindness·, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Tũma tũkene matukũ maingĩ o ta marĩa ũtũnyamarĩtie, na mĩaka mĩingĩ o ta ĩrĩa tuonete thĩĩna.
Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16 Ndungata ciaku irokĩonio ciĩko ciaku, naguo riiri waku wonio ciana ciao.
Let your work appear to your servants; your glory to their children.
17 Wega wa Mwathani Ngai witũ ũrogĩa na ithuĩ; tũma wĩra wa moko maitũ ũgaacĩre, ĩĩ-ni, kĩrũmie wĩra wa moko maitũ.
Let the favor of Yahweh our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.
