1 Jehova nĩarathamaka, ndũrĩrĩ nĩcikĩinaine; aikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene arĩ gatagatĩ ka makerubi, thĩ nĩĩthingithe.
A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.
2 Jehova nĩ mũnene Zayuni; nĩatũũgĩrĩte igũrũ rĩa ndũrĩrĩ ciothe.
The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.
3 Andũ nĩmakĩgooce rĩĩtwa rĩaku inene na rĩa gwĩtigĩrwo: we nĩwe mũtheru.
Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:
4 Mũthamaki nĩ arĩ hinya, na nĩendete kĩhooto: nĩũrũmĩtie ũtuithania wa ciira ũrĩa mwerekereru; nĩwĩkĩte maũndũ ma kĩhooto na ma ũthingu thĩinĩ wa Jakubu.
And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.
5 Tũũgĩriai Jehova Ngai witũ, na mũmũinamĩrĩre, mũmũhooe mũrĩ gĩturwa-inĩ kĩa makinya make; we nĩwe mũtheru.
Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.
6 Musa na Harũni maarĩ amwe a athĩnjĩri-Ngai ake, nake Samũeli aarĩ ũmwe wa arĩa maakayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩake; maakayagĩra Jehova nake akametĩka.
Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:
7 Aamaragĩria arĩ thĩinĩ wa gĩtugĩ kĩa itu; makĩrũmia mawatho make na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩrĩa aamaheete.
He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.
8 Wee Jehova Ngai witũ-rĩ, nĩwametĩkaga; harĩ Isiraeli warĩ Mũrungu mũrekanĩri, o na gũtuĩka nĩwamaherithagia nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao njũru.
Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.
9 Tũũgĩriai Jehova Ngai witũ, na mũmũhooyage mũrĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩake kĩamũre, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ mũtheru.
Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
