< 1 Chronicles 16 >

1 They brought the Ark of God and placed it in the tent that David had prepared for it. They presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings to God.
Ha bubatara igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ guzobe ya nʼime ụlọ ikwu nke Devid manyere maka ya. Ha chekwara aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo nʼihu Chineke.
2 Once David had finished presenting the burnt offerings and friendship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
Mgbe Devid chụsịrị aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo ndị a, ọ gọziri ndị Izrel nʼaha Onyenwe anyị.
3 Then he shared out to every Israelite, to every man and woman, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.
O nyekwara onye ọbụla nʼIzrel, ma nwoke ma nwanyị, otu ogbe achịcha, ọkpụrụkpụ anụ na achịcha mkpụrụ osisi a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ.
4 David assigned some of the Levites to serve as ministers before the Ark of the Lord, to remember, to thank, and to praise the Lord, the God of Israel.
Ọ họpụtara ụfọdụ ndị Livayị ka ha nọdụ nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ inye Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel ekele na otuto na ịrịọ ya ngọzị nʼisi ndị ya Izrel. Ndị a bụ ndị o nyere ije ozi a:
5 Asaph was the one in charge, Zechariah was second, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel. They played harps and lyres, and Asaph struck the cymbals,
Asaf bụ onyeisi ndị a. Ndị ọzọ bụ Zekaraya, Jeiel, Shemiramot, Jehiel, Matitaia, Eliab, Benaya, Obed-Edọm na Jeiel. Ọrụ ha bụ ịkpọ ụbọ akwara, na une, ma ọrụ Asaf bụ onye na-akụ ogene ọla na-ada ụda.
6 and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel blew the trumpets continually in front of the Ark of God's Agreement.
Benaya na Jahaziel, ndị nchụaja, ketara ọrụ ịfụ opi nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke kwamgbe kwamgbe.
7 This was the day that David first instructed Asaph and his relatives to express thanks to the Lord in this way:
Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka Devid buru ụzọ họpụta Asaf na ndị otu ya ka ha nye Onyenwe anyị otuto nʼusoro dị otu a:
8 Give the Lord thanks, worship his wonderful nature, let people know what he's done!
Nyenụ Onyenwe anyị otuto, kwupụtakwa aha ya, meenụ ka amata nʼetiti mba niile banyere ihe niile ọ rụrụ.
9 Sing to him, sing his praises; tell everyone the great things he's done!
Bụkuonụ ya abụ, bụkuonụ ya abụ otuto; kwupụtaranụ mba niile ọrụ ebube ya niile.
10 Be proud of his holy character; be happy, all who come to the Lord!
Ṅụrianụ nʼime aha nsọ ya; ka obi ndị niile na-achọ Onyenwe anyị ṅụrịa ọṅụ.
11 Look for the Lord, and his strength; always look to be with him.
Na-achọnụ Onyenwe anyị na ike ya, chọọnụ ihu ya mgbe niile.
12 Remember all the wonderful things he's done, the miracles he's performed, and the judgments he's carried out,
Chetanụ ọrụ ebube niile nke ọ rụrụ, ihe ịrịbama ya niile na ikpe ziri ezi niile nke si nʼọnụ ya pụta.
13 descendants of Israel, children of Jacob, his chosen people.
Unu, ụmụ Izrel, bụ ohu ya ụmụ Jekọb, ndị ọ họpụtara.
14 He is the Lord, our God, his judgments cover the whole earth.
Ya onwe ya bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị; ikpe ya dị nʼụwa niile.
15 He remembers his agreement forever, the promise he made lasts for a thousand generations;
Ọ na-echeta ọgbụgba ndụ ya ruo mgbe ebighị ebi; bụ nkwa o kwere nye puku ọgbọ.
16 the agreement he made with Abraham, the vow he gave to Isaac.
Ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nke ya na Ebraham gbara, na iyi ọ ṅụrụ nye Aịzik.
17 The Lord legally confirmed it with Jacob, he made this everlasting agreement with Israel:
O mere ka o guzoro nye Jekọb dịka ụkpụrụ, ma nʼebe Izrel nọ dịka ọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi:
18 saying, “I will give the land of Canaan to you for you to possess.”
Sị, “Aga m enye gị ala Kenan ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa gị.”
19 He said this when there were only a few of you, just a small group of foreigners in the land.
Mgbe ha dị ole na ole nʼọnụọgụgụ, nʼezie, ole na ole, bụrụkwa ọbịa nʼala ahụ.
20 They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to the next.
Ha wagharịrị site nʼotu mba gaa mba ọzọ, sitekwa nʼotu alaeze gaa na alaeze ọzọ.
21 He didn't let anyone one treat them badly; warning kings to leave them alone:
O kweghị ka onye ọbụla mekpaa ha ahụ; ọ baara ndị eze mba nʼihi ha, sị:
22 “Don't touch my chosen people; don't harm my prophets!”
“Unu emetụkwala ndị m e tere mmanụ aka, unu emekpakwala ndị amụma m ahụ.”
23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth, sing to the Lord! Each day let everyone know of his salvation!
Bụkuonụ Onyenwe anyị abụ, unu ụwa niile; kwupụtanụ nzọpụta ya site nʼotu ụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị nke ọzọ.
24 Declare his glorious acts among the nations, the wonderful things he does among all peoples.
Kwusaanụ ebube ya nʼetiti mba niile, kọsakwanụ banyere oke ọrụ ya niile nʼetiti ndị niile dị iche iche.
25 For the Lord is great, and deserves the best praise! He is to be respected with awe above all gods.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị dị ukwuu, ọ bụkwa onye kachasị ka e nye otuto. Onye a na-atụ egwu karịa chi ọzọ niile ka ọ bụkwa.
26 For all the gods of other nations are idols; but the Lord made the heavens!
Nʼihi na chi niile nke mba niile dị iche iche bụ arụsị efu, maọbụ Onyenwe anyị kere eluigwe niile.
27 Splendor and majesty are his; power and glory are in his sanctuary.
Ịma mma na ebube dị nʼihu ya; ike na ọṅụ dị nʼebe obibi ya.
28 Give the Lord credit, nations of the world, credit him with glory and strength.
Nyenụ Onyenwe anyị, unu ezinaụlọ nke mba niile dị iche iche, nyenụ Onyenwe anyị nsọpụrụ na ike.
29 Give the Lord the glory he deserves; bring an offering and come before him. Worship the Lord in his magnificent holiness.
E, nyenụ Onyenwe anyị nsọpụrụ ruuru aha ya, werenụ onyinye bịa nʼihu ya. Kpọọnụ isiala nye Onyenwe anyị nʼịma mma nke ịdị nsọ ya.
30 Let everyone on earth tremble in his presence. The world is held together firmly—it cannot be broken apart.
Maa jijiji nʼihu ya, unu ụwa niile. Elu ụwa niile kwụ chịm, a pụghị iwezuga ya nʼọnọdụ ya.
31 Let the heavens sing for joy, let the earth be happy. Tell the nations, “The Lord is in charge!”
Ka eluigwe ṅụrịa, ka ụwa nwekwa obi ụtọ; ka ha kwupụta nʼetiti mba niile sị, “Onyenwe anyị na-achị.”
32 Let the sea and everything in it shout with praise! Let the fields and everything there celebrate;
Ka osimiri bigbọọ, na ihe niile dị nʼime ya, ka ala ubi niile na ihe niile dị nʼime ha jupụta nʼobi ụtọ.
33 Let all the trees in the forest sing for joy, for he is coming to judge the earth.
Ka osisi niile nke oke ọhịa bụọ abụ, ka ha bụọ abụ ọṅụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ọ na-abịa ikpe ụwa ikpe.
34 Say thank you to the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love continues forever!
Keleenụ Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ọ dị mma, nʼihi na ịhụnanya ya na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
35 Shout out, “Save us, Lord, our God! Bring us back together from among the nations, rescue us, so we can thank you and praise how magnificent and holy you are.”
Tikuonụ ya mkpu sị, “Zọpụta anyị, gị Chineke, Onye nzọpụta anyị; chịkọta anyị, ma napụtakwa anyị site nʼaka mba dị iche iche, ka anyị nwee ike nye aha nsọ gị ekele; ma nyaakwa isi nʼime otuto gị.”
36 How wonderful is the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives forever and ever! Then all the people said, “Amen!” and “Praise the Lord!”
Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke Izrel, site nʼebighị ebi ruo ebighị ebi. Mgbe ahụ, mmadụ niile sịrị, “Amen” na “Toonu Onyenwe anyị.”
37 Then David made sure Asaph and his brothers would minister continually before the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, performing whatever services were needed every day,
Devid hapụrụ Asaf na ndị Livayị ibe ya nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ ụbọchị niile ije ozi mgbe niile, dịka ọrụ ụbọchị ọbụla si dị.
38 as well as Obed-edom and his sixty-eight relatives. Obed-edom, son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, were gatekeepers.
Obed-Edọm nwa Jedutun so nʼime ha, ya na Hosa, na iri mmadụ isii na asatọ ọzọ. Obed-Edọm nwa Jedutun na Hosa bụ ndị na-eche ọnụ ụzọ.
39 David put Zadok the priest and his fellow priests in charge of the Ark of the Lord at the high place in Gibeon
Devid nyefekwara Zadọk, onye nchụaja, na ndị nchụaja ibe ya, ọrụ ịnọ nʼihu ụlọ nzute Onyenwe anyị, nʼebe dị elu nke Gibiọn.
40 to present burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burnt offerings, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the law of the Lord which he had ordered Israel to follow.
Nʼihi ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ mgbe niile nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, ụtụtụ na anyasị niile nʼusoro dịka e si dee ya nʼakwụkwọ iwu Onyenwe anyị, nke o nyere ndị Izrel.
41 They were accompanied by Heman, Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen and identified by name to give thanks to the Lord, for “His trustworthy love lasts forever.”
Devid họpụtakwara Heman, na Jedutun, na ndị ọzọ a kpọrọ aha họpụta inye Onyenwe anyị ekele, “nʼihi ịhụnanya ya na obi ebere ya nke na-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
42 Heman and Jeduthun used their trumpets and cymbals to make music to accompany the songs of God. The sons of Jeduthun guarded the gate.
Heman na Jedutun bụ ndị ọ dịịrị ịfụ opi, na ịkụ ogene ọla, na ihe egwu ndị ọzọ eji na-enye Chineke otuto. Ụmụ ndị ikom Jedutun bụ ndị nọ nche nʼọnụ ụzọ ama.
43 Then all the people went home, and David went to bless his family.
Mgbe mmemme ahụ gwụsịrị, onye ọbụla lara nʼụlọ ya. Devid lakwara ịgọzi ezinaụlọ ya.
