Psalms 44
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme to give instruction, committed to the sonnes of Korah. We haue heard with our eares, O God: our fathers haue tolde vs the workes, that thou hast done in their dayes, in the olde time:
Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ maskil nke ụmụ Kora. O Chineke, anyị anụla; nna anyị ha agwakwala anyị ihe ndị i mere nʼoge ha, nʼoge gara aga.
2 Howe thou hast driuen out the heathen with thine hand, and planted them: how thou hast destroyed the people, and caused them to grow.
I ji aka gị chụpụ ndị mba ọzọ, ma kụnye nna nna anyị ha dịka osisi. I gwepịara ndị ahụ ma mee ka ndị nna anyị na-eto na-awasa.
3 For they inherited not the lande by their owne sworde, neither did their owne arme saue them: but thy right hand, and thine arme and the light of thy countenance, because thou didest fauour them.
Ọ bụghị site na mma agha ha ka ha ji merie nweta ala a, ha emerighị site nʼike nke aka ha; ọ bụ aka nri gị, aka gị, na ìhè nke ihu gị nyere ha mmeri, nʼihi na ị hụrụ ha nʼanya.
4 Thou art my King, O God: send helpe vnto Iaakob.
Ị bụ eze m na Chineke m, onye na-ekpebi na Jekọb aghaghị inwe mmeri.
5 Through thee haue we thrust backe our aduersaries: by thy Name haue we troden downe them that rose vp against vs.
Nʼihi ọ bụ naanị site nʼike gị, ya na aha gị, ka anyị ji zọda ndị iro anyị nʼokpuru ụkwụ anyị.
6 For I do not trust in my bowe, neither can my sworde saue me.
Atụkwasịghị m obi m nʼụta m, mma agha m anaghị enye m mmeri;
7 But thou hast saued vs from our aduersaries, and hast put them to confusion that hate vs.
ma i na-enye anyị mmeri nʼebe ndị iro anyị nọ, ị na-eme ka ihere mee ndị na-eguzogide anyị.
8 Therefore will wee praise God continually, and will confesse thy Name for euer. (Selah)
Nʼime Chineke ka ịnya isi anyị dị ogologo ụbọchị niile, anyị ga-eto aha gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. (Sela)
9 But now thou art farre off, and puttest vs to confusion, and goest not forth with our armies.
Ma ugbu a, ị jụla anyị ma weda anyị nʼala; ị naghị esokwa ndị agha anyị apụ ọzọ.
10 Thou makest vs to turne backe from the aduersary, and they, which hate vs, spoile for theselues.
I mere ka anyị site nʼihu ndị iro anyị gbalaga, i meela ka ndị na-emegide anyị were aka ike napụ anyị ihe bụ nke anyị.
11 Thou giuest vs as sheepe to bee eaten, and doest scatter vs among the nations.
Ị gbakụtara anyị azụ ka e ripịa anyị dịka atụrụ, ma chụsasịa anyị nʼetiti mba niile.
12 Thou sellest thy people without gaine, and doest not increase their price.
I rere ndị gị ọnụ ala, ihe i retara ha abaghị uru nye gị.
13 Thou makest vs a reproche to our neighbours, a iest and a laughing stocke to them that are round about vs.
I meela ka anyị bụrụ nkọcha nye ndị agbataobi anyị, anyị bụ ihe ịkwa emo na ihe ọchị nye ndị gbara anyị gburugburu.
14 Thou makest vs a prouerbe among the nations, and a nodding of the head among the people.
I meela anyị ka anyị bụrụ ihe ịmaatụ ọchị nʼetiti mba niile, ndị ọbụla hụrụ anyị na-efufe isi na mkparị.
15 My confusion is dayly before me, and the shame of my face hath couered me,
Ogologo ụbọchị niile, ihere m dị m nʼihu, ihere m na-ekpuchikwa m ihu,
16 For the voyce of the slaunderer and rebuker, for the enemie and auenger.
mgbe ndị nkwulu na ndị nkọcha na-eji m eme ihe ọchị, nʼihi onye iro, onye kpebiri ịbọ ọbọ.
17 All this is come vpon vs, yet doe wee not forget thee, neither deale wee falsly concerning thy couenant.
Ọ bụ ezie na ihe ndị a adakwasịla anyị, ma anyị echefubeghị gị. Anyị enupubeghị isi nʼọgbụgba ndụ anyị na gị.
18 Our heart is not turned backe: neither our steps gone out of thy paths,
Obi anyị ahapụbeghị gị! Anyị ahapụbekwaghị iso ụzọ gị.
19 Albeit thou hast smitten vs downe into the place of dragons, and couered vs with the shadow of death.
Ma i gwepịara anyị mee ka anyị bụrụ ebe nkịta ọhịa na-akpagharị, jirikwa oke ọchịchịrị kpuchie anyị.
20 If wee haue forgotten the Name of our God, and holden vp our hands to a strange god,
Ọ bụrụ na anyị chefuru aha Chineke anyị, maọbụ na anyị gbasaara chi mba ọzọ aka anyị,
21 Shall not God searche this out? for hee knoweth the secrets of the heart.
ọ bụ na Chineke agaraghị achọpụta ya, ebe ọ maara ihe nzuzo niile dị nʼobi?
22 Surely for thy sake are we slaine continually, and are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.
Ọ bụ nʼihi gị ka anyị na ọnwụ ji agba mgba, ogologo ụbọchị niile. A na-ele anyị anya dịka atụrụ a gaje igbu egbu.
23 Vp, why sleepest thou, O Lord? awake, be not farre off for euer.
O, Onyenwe m teta! Gịnị mere i ji arahụ ụra? Kpọtee onwe gị! Ajụkwala anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face? and forgettest our miserie and our affliction?
Gịnị mere i ji ezopụ ihu gị, ma chefuo mmegbu na ịta ahụhụ anyị?
25 For our soule is beaten downe vnto the dust: our belly cleaueth vnto the ground.
E tidala anyị nʼala, nʼuzuzu, ahụ anyị rapara nʼaja
26 Rise vp for our succour, and redeeme vs for thy mercies sake.
Bilie ma nyere anyị aka; gbapụta anyị maka ịhụnanya gị nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ.
