< Psalms 44 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF THE SONS OF KORAH. O God, we have heard with our ears, Our fathers have recounted to us, The work You worked in their days, In the days of old.
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 You, [with] Your hand, have dispossessed nations. And You plant them. You afflict peoples, and send them away.
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 did not possess the land by their sword, And their arm did not give salvation to them, But Your right hand, and Your arm, And the light of Your countenance, Because You had accepted 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 You [are] He, my King, O God, Command the deliverances of Jacob.
Ị bụ eze m na Chineke m, onye na-ekpebi na Jekọb aghaghị inwe mmeri.
5 By You we push our adversaries, By Your Name we tread down our withstanders,
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 bow, And my sword does not save me.
Atụkwasịghị m obi m nʼụta m, mma agha m anaghị enye m mmeri;
7 For You have saved us from our adversaries, And You have put to shame those hating us.
ma i na-enye anyị mmeri nʼebe ndị iro anyị nọ, ị na-eme ka ihere mee ndị na-eguzogide anyị.
8 In God we have boasted all the day, And we thank Your Name for all time. (Selah)
Nʼime Chineke ka ịnya isi anyị dị ogologo ụbọchị niile, anyị ga-eto aha gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. (Sela)
9 In anger You have cast off and cause us to blush, And do not go forth with our hosts.
Ma ugbu a, ị jụla anyị ma weda anyị nʼala; ị naghị esokwa ndị agha anyị apụ ọzọ.
10 You cause us to turn backward from an adversary, And those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.
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 You make us food like sheep, And You have scattered us among nations.
Ị gbakụtara anyị azụ ka e ripịa anyị dịka atụrụ, ma chụsasịa anyị nʼetiti mba niile.
12 You sell Your people—without wealth, And have not become great by their price.
I rere ndị gị ọnụ ala, ihe i retara ha abaghị uru nye gị.
13 You make us a reproach to our neighbors, A scorn and a reproach to our surrounders.
I meela ka anyị bụrụ nkọcha nye ndị agbataobi anyị, anyị bụ ihe ịkwa emo na ihe ọchị nye ndị gbara anyị gburugburu.
14 You make us an allegory among nations, A shaking of the head among peoples.
I meela anyị ka anyị bụrụ ihe ịmaatụ ọchị nʼetiti mba niile, ndị ọbụla hụrụ anyị na-efufe isi na mkparị.
15 All the day my confusion [is] before me, And the shame of my face has covered me.
Ogologo ụbọchị niile, ihere m dị m nʼihu, ihere m na-ekpuchikwa m ihu,
16 Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because of an enemy and a self-avenger.
mgbe ndị nkwulu na ndị nkọcha na-eji m eme ihe ọchị, nʼihi onye iro, onye kpebiri ịbọ ọbọ.
17 All this met us, and we did not forget You, Nor have we dealt falsely in Your covenant.
Ọ bụ ezie na ihe ndị a adakwasịla anyị, ma anyị echefubeghị gị. Anyị enupubeghị isi nʼọgbụgba ndụ anyị na gị.
18 We do not turn our heart backward, Nor turn aside our step from Your path.
Obi anyị ahapụbeghị gị! Anyị ahapụbekwaghị iso ụzọ gị.
19 But You have struck us in a place of dragons, And cover us over with death-shade.
Ma i gwepịara anyị mee ka anyị bụrụ ebe nkịta ọhịa na-akpagharị, jirikwa oke ọchịchịrị kpuchie anyị.
20 If we have forgotten the Name of our God, And spread our hands to a strange God,
Ọ bụrụ na anyị chefuru aha Chineke anyị, maọbụ na anyị gbasaara chi mba ọzọ aka anyị,
21 Does God not search this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.
ọ bụ na Chineke agaraghị achọpụta ya, ebe ọ maara ihe nzuzo niile dị nʼobi?
22 Surely, for Your sake we have been slain all the day, Reckoned as sheep of 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 Stir up—why do You sleep, O Lord? Awake, do not cast us off forever.
O, Onyenwe m teta! Gịnị mere i ji arahụ ụra? Kpọtee onwe gị! Ajụkwala anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
24 Why do You hide Your face? You forget our afflictions and our oppression,
Gịnị mere i ji ezopụ ihu gị, ma chefuo mmegbu na ịta ahụhụ anyị?
25 For our soul has bowed to the dust, Our belly has cleaved to the earth.
E tidala anyị nʼala, nʼuzuzu, ahụ anyị rapara nʼaja
26 Arise, a help to us, And ransom us for your kindness’ sake.
Bilie ma nyere anyị aka; gbapụta anyị maka ịhụnanya gị nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ.
