< Psalms 107 >
1 Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Keleenụ Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ọ dị mma; ịhụnanya ya na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
2 Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: and gathered out of the countries.
Ka ndị niile Onyenwe anyị gbapụtara kwuo otu a, ndị niile ọ gbapụtara site nʼaka onye kpọrọ ha asị,
3 From the rising and the setting of the sun, from the north and from the sea.
ndị ọ kpọlatara site nʼala niile dị iche iche, site nʼọwụwa anyanwụ na ọdịda anyanwụ, site nʼugwu na ndịda.
4 They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: they found not the way of a city for their habitation.
Ụfọdụ wagharịrị nʼọzara, ala nke tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ha enweghị ike ịchọta ụzọ nke ga-eduba ha nʼobodo ebe ha ga-ebi.
5 They were hungry and thirsty: their soul fainted in them.
Agụụ gụrụ ha, akpịrị kpọkwara ha nkụ, olileanya gwụrụ ha nʼobi.
6 And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: and he delivered them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị, nʼime nsogbu ha, ọ napụtakwara ha site na mkpagbu ha niile.
7 And he led them into the right way: that they might go to a city of habitation.
O duuru ha nʼụzọ ziri ezi baa nʼobodo ha ga-ebi.
8 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ,
9 For he hath satisfied the empty soul, and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.
nʼihi na o jirila ọtụtụ ezi ihe nyejuo ndị agụụ na-agụ afọ meekwa ka onye akpịrị na-akpọ nkụ ṅụjuo afọ.
10 Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: bound in want and in iron.
Ụfọdụ nọdụrụ ala nʼọchịchịrị na nʼọnọdụ oke ihe mwute nke obi, ndị nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ na-ata ahụhụ ndị e ji mkpọrọ igwe kee ha agbụ,
11 Because they had exasperated the words of God: and provoked the counsel of the most High:
nʼihi na ha nupuru isi megide okwu niile nke Chineke ma lelikwaa ndụmọdụ niile nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu.
12 And their heart was humbled with labours: they were weakened, and their was none to help them.
Nʼihi ya, Chineke mere ka ha hụjuo anya site nʼịdọgbu onwe ha nʼọrụ, ha sụrụ ngọngọ daa, ma ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nyeere ha aka ibilite ọtọ.
13 Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha, ọ zọpụtara ha site na mkpagbu ha niile.
14 And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; and broke their bonds in sunder.
O mere ka ha site nʼọchịchịrị na oke ihe mwute nke obi pụta. O tijikwara agbụ ha niile.
15 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya, nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ,
16 Because he hath broken gates of brass, and burst the iron bars.
nʼihi na o tijisiela ọnụ ụzọ ama niile e ji bronz kpụọ gbujiekwa mkpọrọ ịkpọchi ụzọ niile e ji igwe kpụọ.
17 He took them out of the way of their iniquity: for they were brought low for their injustices.
Ụfọdụ ghọrọ ndị nzuzu site na nnupu isi taakwa ahụhụ nʼihi njehie ha niile.
18 Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.
Ihe oriri ọbụla ghọọrọ ha ihe rụrụ arụ ha bịakwara ọnụ ụzọ ama ọnwụ nso.
19 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha ọ zọpụtara ha site na mkpagbu ahụ niile.
20 He sent his word, and healed them: and delivered them from their destructions.
O zipụrụ okwu ọnụ ya, gwọọ ha; ọ napụtara ha site nʼili.
21 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ.
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifice of praise: and declare his works with joy.
Ka ha chụọ aja ekele nye ya jirikwa ọtụtụ abụ ọṅụ kwupụta banyere ọrụ ya niile.
23 They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in the great waters:
Ụfọdụ ji ụgbọ mmiri na-ejegharị nʼelu oke osimiri; ha bụ ndị na-azụ ahịa ma na-ebugharịkwa ngwa ahịa nʼelu oke osimiri.
24 These have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
Ha hụrụ ọrụ niile nke Onyenwe anyị, ọtụtụ ọrụ ebube ya nʼogbu mmiri.
25 He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: and the waves thereof were lifted up.
Nʼihi na o kwuru okwu mere ka oke ifufe kuo nke buliri ebili mmiri elu.
26 They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: their soul pined away with evils.
Ha bụ ndị e buliri nnọọ ezigbo elu, ma budatakwa ruo ogbu mmiri niile; nʼọnọdụ ihe egwu ahụ, obi lọrọ ha mmiri.
27 They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; and all their wisdom was swallowed up.
Ha na-adagharị, na-aṅagharịkwa dịka ndị ṅụbigara mmanya oke. Mmụta ha banyere ịnya ụgbọ mmiri adịghị enyekwara ha aka nʼoge dị otu a.
28 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha, o mere ka ha pụta na mkpagbu ahụ niile.
29 And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still.
O mere ka oke ifufe dere duu; o mekwara ka ebili mmiri nke oke osimiri dajụọ.
30 And they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which they wished for.
Ha ṅụrịrị ọṅụ mgbe ọ dajụrụ, o duuru ha ruo ebe ha na-aga nʼudo.
31 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ.
32 And let them exalt him in the church of the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients.
Ka ha bulie ya elu nʼetiti ọgbakọ ukwu ụmụ mmadụ ma tookwa ya na nzukọ ndị okenye.
33 He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: and the sources of water into dry ground:
Ọ na-eme ka iyi ghọọ ọzara; na-emekwa ka ebe mmiri si asọpụta ghọọ ala kpọrọ nkụ.
34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
Ọ na-eme ka ala na-amị mkpụrụ hiri nne ghọọ ọzara, nʼihi ajọ omume nke ndị bi nʼime ya.
35 He hath turned a wilderness into pools of water, and a dry land into water springs.
Ọ na-eme ka ọzara ghọọ ala nke ọdọ mmiri jupụtara mee ka ala akọrọ ghọọ isi iyi nke na-asọ asọ;
36 And hath placed there the hungry; and they made a city for their habitation.
ebe ahụ ka ọ kpọbatara ndị agụụ na-agụ ka ha biri, ebe ahụ ka ha wuru obodo ebe ha ga-ebi.
37 And they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: and they yielded fruit of birth.
Ha ghara mkpụrụ nʼubi ha dị iche iche, kụọkwa ọtụtụ ubi vaịnị ndị mịrị mkpụrụ dị ukwuu;
38 And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly: and their cattle he suffered not to decrease.
ọ gọziri ha, ọnụọgụgụ ha bakwara ụba, o mekwara ka anụ ụlọ ha mụbaa.
39 Then they were brought to be few: and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow.
Mgbe ahụ, ọnụọgụgụ ha adịghịkwa ka ọ dị na mbụ, ha bụ ndị e ji mkpagbu na ihe ndakwasị na iru ụjụ wedata nʼala;
40 Contempt was poured forth upon their princes: and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.
onye ahụ na-eleda ndị na-achị achị anya mere ka ha wagharịa nʼọzara, ebe ụzọ na-adịghị.
41 And he helped the poor out of poverty: and made him families like a flock of sheep.
Ma ọ na-anapụta ndị mkpa na-akpa site na nhụju anya ha, mee ka ezinaụlọ ha mụbaa dịka igwe anụ ụlọ.
42 The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop their mouth.
Ndị ezi omume na-ahụ ya na-aṅụrị ọṅụ, ma ndị ajọ omume na-emechi ọnụ ha nọọ duu.
43 Who is wise, and will keep these things: and will understand the mercies of the Lord?
Onye ọbụla maara ihe ga-echezi echiche banyere ihe ndị a, ma tuleekwa ọrụ ịhụnanya Onyenwe anyị nke dị ukwuu.
