Thaburi 99

1 Jehova nĩarathamaka, ndũrĩrĩ nĩcikĩinaine; aikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene arĩ gatagatĩ ka makerubi, thĩ nĩĩthingithe.

The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.

2 Jehova nĩ mũnene Zayuni; nĩatũũgĩrĩte igũrũ rĩa ndũrĩrĩ ciothe.

The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.

3 Andũ nĩmakĩgooce rĩĩtwa rĩaku inene na rĩa gwĩtigĩrwo: we nĩwe mũtheru.

They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.

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 to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed 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 bow yourselves down before his footstool: he 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 were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.

7 Aamaragĩria arĩ thĩinĩ wa gĩtugĩ kĩa itu; makĩrũmia mawatho make na kĩrĩra kĩa watho wake wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩrĩa aamaheete.

In the pillar of cloud he used to speak unto them: they kept his testimonies, and the statutes which he had given unto them.

8 Wee Jehova Ngai witũ-rĩ, nĩwametĩkaga; harĩ Isiraeli warĩ Mũrungu mũrekanĩri, o na gũtuĩka nĩwamaherithagia nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao njũru.

O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.

9 Tũũgĩriai Jehova Ngai witũ, na mũmũhooyage mũrĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩake kĩamũre, nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ mũtheru.

Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.
