< Psalms 89 >

1 The understanding of Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing the mercies of the Lord in eternity. I will announce your truth with my mouth, from generation to generation.
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.
2 For you have said: Mercy will be built in the heavens, unto eternity. Your truth will be prepared there.
Nĩngumbũra atĩ wendo waku ũtũũraga ũrĩ mũrũmu nginya tene, nyumbũre atĩ wĩhokeku waku nĩũũhaandĩte o kũu igũrũ.
3 I have set up a covenant with my elect. I have sworn to David my servant:
Woigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩngĩte kĩrĩkanĩro na ũrĩa niĩ ndĩthuurĩire, na ngeehĩta na mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Daudi ndungata yakwa ngamwĩra atĩrĩ,
4 I will prepare your offspring, even in eternity. And I will build up your throne, from generation to generation.
‘Nĩngatũma rũciaro rwaku rũtũũre rwĩhaandĩte nginya tene, na ndũme gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu njiarwa na njiarwa.’”
5 The heavens will confess your miracles, Lord, and also your truth, in the Church of the saints.
Wee Jehova-rĩ, igũrũ nĩrĩkumagia magegania maku, na rĩkagaathĩrĩria wĩhokeku waku o naguo, kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa acio atheru.
6 For who among the clouds is equal to the Lord? Who among the sons of God is like God?
Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, kũu matu-inĩ igũrũ nũũ ũngĩgerekanio na Jehova? Nũũ ũkĩhaana ta Jehova harĩ ciũmbe iria irĩ igũrũ?
7 God is glorified by the counsel of the saints. He is great and terrible above all those who are around him.
Kĩama-inĩ kĩa acio atheru, Mũrungu nĩetigĩrĩtwo mũno; nĩ wa gwĩtigĩrwo gũkĩra arĩa othe mamũrigiicĩirie.
8 O Lord, God of hosts, who is like you? You are powerful, Lord, and your truth is all around you.
Wee Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nũũ ũkĩhaana tawe? Wee Jehova, nĩ ũrĩ hinya, na wĩhokeku waku ũtũũraga ũkũrigiicĩirie.
9 You rule over the power of the sea, and you even mitigate the movement of its waves.
Nĩwe wathaga kĩhuhũkanio kĩa iria rĩrĩa inene; rĩrĩa makũmbĩ marĩo mookĩra na igũrũ, nĩũmahooreragia.
10 You have humbled the arrogant one, like one who has been wounded. You have scattered your enemies with the arm of your strength.
Wahehenjire Rahabu agĩtuĩka o ta ũmwe wa arĩa moragĩtwo; wahurunjire thũ ciaku na guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya.
11 Yours are the heavens, and yours is the earth. You founded the whole world in all its fullness.
Igũrũ nĩ rĩaku, o na thĩ no yaku; Wee nĩwe wombire thĩ na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.
12 You created the north and the sea. Tabor and Hermon will exult in your name.
Nĩwe wombire mwena wa gathigathini na wa gũthini; Taboru na Herimoni ciinaga ikenete nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.
13 Your arm acts with power. Let your hand be strengthened, and let your right hand be exalted.
Gĩcoka gĩaku nĩ kĩrĩ ũhoti; guoko gwaku kũrĩ hinya, guoko gwaku kwa ũrĩo nĩgũtũgĩrie.
14 Justice and judgment are the preparation of your throne. Mercy and truth will precede your face.
Ũthingu na kĩhooto nĩcio mũthingi wa gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene; wendo na wĩhokeku nĩigũtongoragia.
15 Blessed is the people that knows jubilation. They will walk in the light of your countenance, O Lord,
Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩa mooĩ gũkũgooca na nyĩmbo, o arĩa mathiiaga na ũtheri waku, Wee Jehova.
16 and they will exult in your name all day long, and they will be exalted in your justice.
Makenagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku mũthenya wothe; magũtũũgagĩria nĩ ũndũ wa ũthingu waku.
17 For you are the glory of their virtue, and in your goodness, our horn will be exalted.
Nĩgũkorwo Wee nĩwe riiri na hinya wao, na tondũ wa ũtugi waku nĩũtũũgagĩria rũhĩa rwitũ.
18 For our assumption is of the Lord, and it is of our king, the holy one of Israel.
Ti-itherũ, ngo iitũ ĩrĩ na Jehova, mũthamaki witũ nĩ wa Ũrĩa-Mũtheru-wa-Isiraeli.
19 Then you spoke in a vision to your holy ones, and you said: I have stationed help with the powerful one, and I have exalted the elect one from my people.
Hĩndĩ ĩmwe nĩwaririe na njĩra ya kĩoneki, ũkĩĩra andũ aku arĩa ehokeku atĩrĩ, “Nĩheete njamba ĩmwe ya ita hinya; nĩndũgĩrĩtie mwanake gatagatĩ ka andũ.
20 I have found my servant David. I have anointed him with my holy oil.
Nĩndĩĩoneire Daudi ndungata yakwa; nĩndĩmũitĩrĩirie maguta makwa maamũre.
21 For my hand will assist him, and my arm will fortify him.
Guoko gwakwa nĩkũrĩmũtiiragĩrĩra; ti-itherũ gĩcoka gĩakwa nĩkĩrĩmwĩkagĩra hinya.
22 The enemy will have no advantage over him, nor will the son of iniquity be positioned to harm him.
Gũtirĩ thũ ĩkaamwĩtia igooti. gũtirĩ mũndũ mwaganu ũkaamũhinyĩrĩria.
23 And I will cut down his enemies before his face. And those who hate him, I will turn to flight.
Nĩngahehenja thũ ciake mbere yake, na njũrage arĩa othe mamũthũire.
24 And my truth and my mercy will be with him. And his horn will be exalted in my name.
Wendo wakwa wa kwĩhokeka ũrĩkoragwo hamwe nake, na nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rũhĩa rwake nĩrũrĩtũũgagĩrio.
25 And I will place his hand on the sea and his right hand on the rivers.
Nĩngatambũrũkia guoko gwake igũrũ rĩa iria, na guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo ndĩkũige igũrũ rĩa njũũĩ.
26 He will invoke me: “You are my father, my God, and the support of my salvation.”
Nĩakanjĩta anjĩĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Wee nĩwe Baba, na Mũrungu wakwa, o Rwaro rwa Ihiga, Mũhonokia wakwa.’
27 And I will make him the first-born, preeminent before the kings of the earth.
Ningĩ nĩngamwamũra atuĩke irigithathi rĩakwa, na ndũme atũũgĩrio gũkĩra athamaki a thĩ.
28 I will preserve my mercy for him eternally, and my covenant for him faithfully.
Nĩngũtũũria wendo wakwa harĩ we nginya tene, na kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa nake gĩtũũre kĩrĩ gĩa kwĩhokeka.
29 And I will set his offspring from generation to generation, and his throne like the days of heaven.
Nĩngahaanda rũciaro rwake nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene ndĩkĩhaande rĩrĩa rĩothe igũrũ rĩgũtũũra.
30 But if his sons abandon my law, and if they do not walk in my judgments,
“Ariũ ake mangĩgatirika watho wakwa na mage kũrũmĩrĩra kĩrĩra gĩakwa,
31 if they profane my justices, and if they do not keep my commandments:
mangĩgathũkia kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na mage kũmenyerera maathani makwa,
32 I will visit their iniquities with a rod, and their sins with a beating.
nĩngaherithia wĩhia wao na rũthanju, herithie waganu wao na kũmahũũra iboko;
33 But I will not scatter my mercy from him, and I will not do harm to my truth.
no ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaamwehereria wendo wakwa, o na kana thaahie wĩhokeku wakwa o na rĩ.
34 And I will not profane my covenant, and I will not make void that which proceeds from my lips.
Ndigathũkia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa kana ngarũrĩre ũrĩa iromo ciakwa ciarĩtie.
35 I have sworn by my holiness one time: I will not lie to David,
Nĩndĩhĩtĩte ngĩgwetaga ũtheru wakwa, rĩmwe rĩa kũigana, na ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaaheenia Daudi,
36 his offspring will remain for eternity. And his throne will be like the sun in my sight,
atĩ rũciaro rwake rũgũtũũra nginya tene, na gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene gĩtũũre kĩrĩ kĩrũmu mbere yakwa ta riũa;
37 and, like the moon, it is perfected in eternity, and it is a faithful witness in heaven.
gĩgũtũũra kĩrĩ kĩrũmu nginya tene o ta mweri, mũira ũrĩa ũrĩ matu-inĩ nĩ mwĩhokeku.”
38 Yet, truly, you have rejected and despised, you have pushed away, my Christ.
No rĩrĩ, wee nĩũregete, na ũgatiganĩria, o na ũgakĩrakarĩra ũcio ũitĩrĩirie maguta.
39 You have overthrown the covenant of your servant. You have profaned his sanctuary on earth.
Wee nĩũkanĩte kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ũrĩkanĩire na ndungata yaku, na ũkarangĩrĩria thũmbĩ yake rũkũngũ-inĩ.
40 You have destroyed all his fences. You have made his territory dreadful.
Wee ũmomorete thingo ciake ciothe na ũkaananga ciĩhitho ciake iria cia hinya.
41 All who pass by the way have plundered him. He has become a disgrace to his neighbors.
Ehĩtũkĩri othe nĩmatahĩte indo ciake; atuĩkĩte wa kũnyararwo nĩ andũ arĩa mariganĩtie nake.
42 You have exalted the right hand of those who oppress him. You have brought joy to all his enemies.
Wee nĩũtũũgĩrĩtie guoko kwa ũrĩo kwa arĩa mamũthũire; nĩũtũmĩte thũ ciake ciothe ikene.
43 You have diverted the help of his sword, and you have not assisted him in battle.
Ũũgĩ wa rũhiũ rwake rwa njora nĩũũhũndũrĩte, na ũkaaga kũmũteithĩrĩria mbaara-inĩ.
44 You have torn him away from cleansing, and you have smashed his throne down to the ground.
Nĩũniinĩte riiri wake ũgathira, na ũgaikania gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene thĩ.
45 You have reduced the days of his time. You have flooded him with confusion.
Nĩũnyiihĩtie matukũ ma wĩthĩ wake; ũmũhumbĩte thoni o ta nguo.
46 How long, O Lord? Will you turn away unto the end? Will your wrath flare up like a fire?
Nĩ nginya rĩ, Wee Jehova? Ũgũtũũra wĩhithĩte nginya tene? Nĩ nginya rĩ mangʼũrĩ maku megũtũũra maakanĩte ta mwaki?
47 Remember what my substance is. For could you really have appointed all the sons of men in vain?
Ririkana ũrĩa mũtũũrĩre wakwa ũrĩ wa gũthira o narua. Kaĩ akĩrĩ ũndũ wa tũhũ watũmire ũmbe andũ othe!
48 Who is the man that will live, and yet not see death? Who will rescue his own soul from the hand of the underworld? (Sheol h7585)
Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ ũngĩtũũra muoyo na ndonane na gĩkuũ, kana ehonokie kuuma kũrĩ hinya wa mbĩrĩra? (Sheol h7585)
49 O Lord, where are your mercies of antiquity, just as you swore to David in your truth?
Wee Mwathani, wendo waku mũnene ũrĩa wa tene ũkĩrĩ kũ, ũrĩa wehĩtire, ũkĩĩrĩra Daudi na ũndũ wa wĩhokeku waku?
50 Be mindful, O Lord, of the disgrace of your servants (which I have sustained in my sinews) among many nations.
Mwathani, ririkana ũrĩa ndungata yaku ĩnyũrũrĩtio, na ũrĩa nyũmĩrĩirie irumi iria numĩtwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ngoro-inĩ yakwa,
51 With these, your enemies have reproached you, O Lord; with these, they have reproached the commutation of your Christ.
o irumi iria thũ ciaku iinyũrũrĩtie nacio, Wee Jehova, iria itũire inyũrũrĩtie makinya ma ũrĩa wee ũitĩrĩirie maguta nacio.
52 Blessed is the Lord for all eternity. Amen. Amen.
Jehova arogoocwo nginya tene!
