< Psalms 34 >
1 For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way. I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.
Abụ Ọma Devid. Mgbe ọ gbanwere omume ya mee ka onye na-ayị ara nʼihu Abimelek, onye nke chụpụrụ ya, ya a pụọ. Aga m eto Onyenwe anyị mgbe niile. Mgbe niile ka otuto ya ga-adị nʼọnụ m.
2 In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.
Mkpụrụobi m ga-anya isi na Onyenwe anyị; ka ndị niile a na-akpagbu gee ntị ṅụrịa ọṅụ.
3 O magnify the Lord with me; and let us extol his name together.
Soro m too Onyenwe anyị; ka anyị bulie aha ya elu.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my troubles.
Nʼihi na etikuru m Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, ọ zakwara m, napụta m site nʼaka ịtụ ụjọ m niile.
5 Come ye to him and be enlightened: and your faces shall not be confounded.
Ihu ndị na-elekwasị ya anya na-enwu dịka ihe; ihere adịghị eme ha.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: and saved him out of all his troubles.
Onye ogbenye a kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị, ọ zakwara ya; ọ zọpụtara ya site na nsogbu ya niile.
7 The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.
Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị na-agba ndị niile na-atụ egwu ya gburugburu na-anapụtakwa ha.
8 O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: blessed is the man that hopeth in him.
Jiri aka gị tulee ma hụkwa na Onyenwe anyị dị mma; onye a gọziri agọzi ka onye ahụ bụ, onye nke na-agbaba nʼime ya.
9 Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
Tụọnụ egwu Onyenwe anyị, unu ndị nsọ ya, nʼihi na ọ dịghị ihe na-akọ ndị niile na-atụ egwu ya.
10 The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.
Agụụ nwere ike ịgụ ụmụ ọdụm, ike pụkwara ịgwụ ha, ma ihe ọbụla bụ ihe ọma agaghị akọ ndị niile na-achọ Onyenwe anyị.
11 Come, children, hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
Ụmụ m, bịanụ gee m ntị; aga m ezi unu ihe ịtụ egwu Onyenwe anyị bụ.
12 Who is the man that desireth life: who loveth to see good days?
Onye ọbụla nʼime unu hụrụ ndụ nʼanya, ma nwee ọchịchọ ihu ọtụtụ ụbọchị ndị dị mma,
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
chezie ire gị ka ọ ghara ikwu ihe ọjọọ, chezikwaa egbugbere ọnụ gị ka ọ gharakwa ịgha ụgha.
14 Turn away from evil and do good: seek after peace and pursue it.
Site nʼihe ọjọọ wezuga onwe gị ma mee ezi ihe, chọọ udo ma gbasookwa ya.
15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: and his ears unto their prayers.
Anya Onyenwe anyị dị nʼahụ ndị ezi omume, ntị ya gheekwa oghe nye mkpu akwa ha;
16 But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
ma ihu Onyenwe anyị na-emegide ndị na-eme ihe ọjọọ, ime ka a hapụ ichetakwa ihe banyere ha nʼụwa.
17 The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.
Onyenwe anyị na-anụ olu ndị ezi omume, mgbe ha na-akpọku ya ka o nyere ha aka; ọ na-azọpụtakwa ha site na nsogbu ha niile.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.
Onyenwe anyị na-anọ ndị niile obi ha tiwara etiwa nso, ọ na-anapụta ndị niile olileanya ha gwụrụ.
19 Many are the afflictions of the just; but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.
Nsogbu na-adakwasị ndị ezi omume na-adị ukwuu, ma Onyenwe anyị na-anapụta ha site na nsogbu ndị ahụ niile.
20 The Lord keepeth all their bones, not one of them shall be broken.
Ọ na-anapụtakwa ha kpamkpam. Ọ gaghị ekwe ka ọ bụladị otu ọkpụkpụ dị ha nʼahụ gbajie.
21 The death of the wicked is very evil: and they that hate the just shall be guilty.
Ihe ọjọọ ga-eme ka onye ajọ omume nwụọ; ndị na-akpọ onye ezi omume asị ka a ga-ama ikpe ọnwụ.
22 The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall offend.
Onyenwe anyị na-agbapụta ndị ohu ya; ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nke na-agbaba nʼime ya a ga-ama ikpe ọnwụ.
