Psalms 50
1 “A psalm of Assaph.” The God of gods, the Lord, speaketh, and calleth the earth, from the rising of the sun unto his setting.
Abụ Ọma Asaf. Onyenwe anyị, Chineke, Onye kachasị chi niile, ekwuola okwu ma kpọkọta ụwa niile, site na ọwụwa anyanwụ ruo na ọdịda ya.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shineth forth.
Chineke na-enwupụta dịka ìhè, site na Zayọn, nke zuruoke nʼime ịma mma.
3 Our God is coming, and will not keep silence: a fire devoureth before him, and round him there rageth a mighty storm.
Chineke anyị na-abịa, ọ gaghị emechikwa ọnụ; ọkụ na-erepịa erepịa dị nʼihu ya, oke ifufe na-efesi ike gbakwara ya gburugburu.
4 He will call to the heavens above, and to the earth, to judge his people.
Ọ na-akpọku eluigwe na ụwa ka o kpee ndị ya ikpe: Ọ na-asị,
5 “Gather together unto me my pious servants, who make a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
“Chikọtaranụ m ndị m e doro nsọ, bụ ndị mụ na ha ji ịchụ aja gbaa ndụ.”
6 And the heavens tell of his righteousness; for God is judge himself. (Selah)
Eluigwe na-ekwupụta ezi omume ya, nʼihi na Chineke nʼonwe ya bụ onye ikpe. (Sela)
7 “Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.
“Nụrụnụ, ndị m, m ga-ekwukwa, Izrel, aga m agba ama megide unu, Abụ m Chineke, Chineke unu.
8 Not because of thy sacrifices will I reprove thee; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.
Anaghị m abara unu mba nʼihi ịchụ aja unu, na aja nsure ọkụ unu nke na-adị m nʼihu oge niile.
9 I will not take a bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.
Enweghị m mkpa maka oke ehi unu site nʼụlọ anụmanụ unu maọbụ mkpi site nʼọgba igwe ewu na atụrụ unu,
10 For mine are all the beasts of the forest, the cattle upon a thousand mountains.
nʼihi na ụmụ anụmanụ niile nke oke ọhịa bụ nke m, ha na ehi niile nọ nʼelu otu puku ugwu.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: whatever moveth on the fields is with me.
Amaara m ụmụ nnụnụ niile nọ nʼelu ugwu niile, ihe niile e kere eke nọ nʼọhịa bụ nke m.
12 If I were hungry, I would not say it to thee; for mine is the world, and what filleth it.
Ọ bụrụ na agụụ agụọ m, agaghị m agwa gị ya, nʼihi na ụwa na ihe niile dị nʼime ya bụ nke m.
13 Do I eat the flesh of fatted bulls, or drink the blood of he-goats?
Ana m ata anụ oke ehi, ka ọ bụ ọbara mkpi ka m ga-aṅụ?
14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay unto the Most High thy vows;
“Chụọrọ Chineke aja ekele, mezuo nkwa i kwere Onye kachasị ihe niile elu,
15 And call on me on the day of distress: I will deliver thee, — and so wilt thou glorify me.”
ma kpọkuo m nʼụbọchị nsogbu gị, aga m agbapụta unu, unu ga-enyekwa m nsọpụrụ.”
16 But unto the wicked God saith, “What hast thou to do to relate my statutes, and why bearest thou my covenant upon thy mouth?
Ma Chineke na-agwa ndị na-eme ihe ọjọọ okwu sị, “Olee, nkwuwa okwu unu nwere ịgụgharị iwu m, maọbụ kwupụta ọgbụgba ndụ m nʼọnụ unu?
17 And yet thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.
Unu kpọrọ ndụmọdụ m asị, na-atụfekwa okwu m nʼazụ unu.
18 When thou seest a thief, then art thou pleased with him, and with adulterers hast thou thy portion.
Mgbe unu hụrụ onye ohi, unu na ya na-ejikọta aka; unu na ndị na-akwa iko na-ekekọkwa oke.
19 Thou lettest loose thy mouth with evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Ọnụ unu na-eme ọsịịsọ ikwu okwu ọjọọ, okwu aghụghọ na nke rere ure na-esikwa nʼọnụ unu na-asọpụta dịka iyi.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; against thy own mother's son thou utterest slander.
Unu na-ekwugide ụmụnna unu mgbe niile, na-ekwutọkwa nwanne unu nwoke.
21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence: thou didst ween that I am like thyself; [but] I will reprove thee, and set it in order before thy eyes.”
Ihe ndị a ka unu mere ma agbachiri m nkịtị; unu chekwara na adị m ka unu. Ma aga m abara unu mba ma bokwaa unu ebubo unu nʼihu unu.
22 Do but reflect on this, ye that forget God, lest I tear [you] in pieces, with none to deliver.
“Tụgharịa uche na nke a, unu ndị na-echefu Chineke, ma ọ bụghị ya, aga m adọrisi unu, ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-agbapụta unu.
23 Whoso offereth thanksgiving glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his course aright, will I show the salvation of God.
Onye na-eji ekele achụrụ m aja, na-asọpụrụ m, ọ bụkwa onye na-edozi ụzọ ya, ka m ga-eme ka ọ hụ nzọpụta Chineke.”
