Psalms 58
1 For the music director. According to “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm (miktam) of David. You leaders, do you really say what is right? Do you judge people fairly?
Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Nke olu abụ “E bibikwala.” Abụ Devid. Abụ miktam. Unu ndị na-achị achị, O nweela oge unu na-ekwu ihe ziri ezi? O nweela oge unu na-ekpe ikpe ziri ezi nʼetiti mmadụ?
2 No, for in your minds you plan evil. You cause violence everywhere!
Mba, nʼime obi unu, unu na-echepụta mmegbu, aka unu na-emepụta ihe ike nʼelu ụwa.
3 The wicked are sinners from birth; from the moment they're born they tell lies.
Ọ bụladị site nʼọmụmụ, ndị ajọ omume na-akpafu; site nʼime afọ, ha na-akpafu akpafu na-ekwusa okwu ụgha.
4 They have venom like that of a poisonous snake, and just like a cobra they stop listening,
Ha na-agbọpụta nsi nʼọnụ ha dịka agwọ, na-emechi ntị ha dịka ajụala ntị chiri,
5 refusing to hear the voice of the snake charmers or the spellbinders.
nke na-adịghị anụ olu onye mgbaasị na-akpọpụta ya, nʼagbanyeghị otu ǹka onye ahụ si dị.
6 God, break their teeth, and smash the jaws of these lions, Lord.
O Chineke, tijie eze niile dị ha nʼọnụ; o Onyenwe anyị, dọpụta eze ọdụm ndị a!
7 May they vanish like water that flows away; when they shoot their arrows may they miss their mark.
Mee ka ha sọfuo dịka mmiri na-asọ asọ; mgbe ha na-eseti ụta ha, mee ka ọnụ àkụ ha gbajie.
8 May they be like the slime of snails that dissolves away, like a stillborn child that never saw the light of day.
Dịka ejula nke na-agbaze mgbe ọ na-aga nʼụzọ ya; dịka nwa nwụrụ nʼafọ nne ya, ka ha ghara ịhụ anyanwụ.
9 Before the cooking pot is hot from burning thorns, whether fresh or dry, God will blow them away.
Tupu ite unu amata okpomọkụ nke osisi ogwu, ma ha dị ndụ, ma ha kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, a ga-azachapụ ndị ajọ omume.
10 Those who live right will be happy when they see there is punishment; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
Ndị ezi omume ga-enwe obi ụtọ mgbe a bọọrọ ha ọbọ, mgbe ha ga-asacha ụkwụ ha nʼime ọbara ndị ajọ omume.
11 They will say, “There is definitely a reward for those who live right; there is certainly a God who judges fairly on earth.”
Mgbe ahụ, ndị mmadụ ga-ekwu sị, “Nʼezie, a na-akwụghachi ndị ezi omume ụgwọ; nʼezie, e nwere Chineke onye na-ekpe ụwa ikpe.”
