Psalms 54

1 For the end, amongst Hymns of instruction by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Behold, is not David hid with us? Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your might.

Abụ Ọma Devid. Abụ eji ụbọ akwara akpọ. Abụ maskil Devid. Mgbe ndị Zif gara sị Sọl, “Devid ọ dịghị ezo nʼetiti anyị?” O Chineke, jiri aha gị zọpụta m; jirikwa ike gị kpepụta m.

2 O God, hear my prayer; listen to the words of my mouth.

O Chineke, nụrụ ekpere m; gee ntị nʼokwu ọnụ m.

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life: they have not set God before them. (Pause)

Ndị m na-amaghị na-ebuso m agha; ndị na-eme ihe ike na-achọ ịnapụ m ndụ m, ndị na-akpọghị Chineke ihe ọbụla. (Sela)

4 For behold! God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.

Nʼezie, Chineke bụ onye inyeaka m; onyenwe m bụ onye na-agba m ume.

5 He shall return evil to mine enemies; utterly destroy them in your truth.

Mee ka ihe ọjọọ lọghachikwute ndị na-ekwulu m; nʼime ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, laa ha nʼiyi.

6 I will willingly sacrifice to you: I will give thanks to your name, O Lord; for [it is] good.

Aga m eji onyinye afọ ofufu chụọrọ gị aja; O Onyenwe anyị, aga m eto aha gị, nʼihi na ọ dị mma.

7 For you have delivered me out of all affliction, and mine eye has seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.

Nʼihi na ọ gbapụtala m site na nsogbu m niile, ọ bụ anya mmeri ka m ji na-ele ndị iro m anya.
