< Psalms 66 >
1 For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
Abụ dịrị onyeisi abụ. Otu Abụ. Abụ Ọma. Ụwa niile, jirinụ ọṅụ tikuo Chineke!
2 Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!
Bụọ abụ banyere ebube aha ya; meenụ ka otuto ya bụrụ ihe dị ebube!
3 Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.
Gwa Chineke okwu sị ya, “Lee ka ọrụ gị niile si dị oke egwu! Ike gị dị nnọọ ukwu, ya mere ndị iro gị, na-ada nʼihu gị nʼihi ụjọ.
4 All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
Ndị niile bi nʼụwa na-akpọ isiala nye gị; ha na-abụku gị abụ otuto, ha na-abụ abụ otuto nye aha gị.” (Sela)
5 Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
Bịa lee ihe Chineke mere, ụdị ọrụ oke egwu ọ na-arụ nʼihi mmadụ!
6 He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
O mere ka osimiri ghọọ ala akọrọ, ha ji ụkwụ si nʼetiti osimiri gafee; bịanụ ka anyị ṅụrịa nʼime ya.
7 He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
Ọ na-achị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi site nʼike ya, anya ya na-elekwa mba niile, ka ndị nnupu isi ghara ịfụlị onwe ha elu megide ya. (Sela)
8 Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,
Toonu Chineke anyị, unu mmadụ niile, kwere ka a nụ ụda otuto ya;
9 who preserves our life among the living, and does not allow our feet to be moved.
O chebela ndụ anyị, ma mee ka ụkwụ anyị ghara ịmịchapụ.
10 For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
Nʼihi na ọ bụ gị, O Chineke, nwara anyị; ị nụchara anyị dịka ọlaọcha.
11 You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
Ị kpọbatara anyị nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, ma bokwasị ibu dị arọ nʼazụ anyị.
12 You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance.
I kwere ka ndị mmadụ rịa anyị elu; anyị esitela nʼime ọkụ na nʼime mmiri gafee. Ị kpọbatala anyị ebe anyị nwezuru ihe niile.
13 I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
Aga m e ji aja nsure ọkụ bata nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu gị, imezu nkwa m kwere gị
14 which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
nʼihi na nke a bụ ihe m ji ọnụ m kwuo, ọ bụkwa nke a ka egbugbere ọnụ m kwupụtara na m ga-eme nʼoge nsogbu m.
15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
Aga m eji anụ ndị gbara abụba chụọrọ gị aja, ya na aja onyinye nke ọtụtụ ebule; Aga m achụkwa aja onyinye nke ọtụtụ oke ehi na mkpi. (Sela)
16 Come and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
Bịanụ nụrụ, unu niile na-atụ egwu Chineke; ka m kọọrọ unu ihe o meere m.
17 I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
Eji m ọnụ m kpọkuo ya; otuto ya dị m nʼire.
18 If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
Ọ bụrụ na mmehie na-amasị m nʼime obi m, Onyenwe anyị agaraghị ege m ntị;
19 But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
ma Chineke gere ntị nʼezie, nụrụkwa olu arịrịọ m.
20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
Otuto dịrị Chineke, onye na-ajụghị ekpere m maọbụ ghara izi m ịhụnanya ya!
