< Psalms 107 >
1 Give thanks to YHWH, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Keleenụ Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ọ dị mma; ịhụnanya ya na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
2 Let the redeemed by YHWH say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
Ka ndị niile Onyenwe anyị gbapụtara kwuo otu a, ndị niile ọ gbapụtara site nʼaka onye kpọrọ ha asị,
3 And gathered out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
ndị ọ kpọlatara site nʼala niile dị iche iche, site nʼọwụwa anyanwụ na ọdịda anyanwụ, site nʼugwu na ndịda.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way. They found no city to live in.
Ụfọdụ wagharịrị nʼọzara, ala nke tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ha enweghị ike ịchọta ụzọ nke ga-eduba ha nʼobodo ebe ha ga-ebi.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
Agụụ gụrụ ha, akpịrị kpọkwara ha nkụ, olileanya gwụrụ ha nʼobi.
6 Then they cried to YHWH in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses,
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị, nʼime nsogbu ha, ọ napụtakwara ha site na mkpagbu ha niile.
7 he led them also by a straight way, that they might go to a city to live in.
O duuru ha nʼụzọ ziri ezi baa nʼobodo ha ga-ebi.
8 Let them praise YHWH for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works for the descendants of Adam.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ,
9 For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
nʼihi na o jirila ọtụtụ ezi ihe nyejuo ndị agụụ na-agụ afọ meekwa ka onye akpịrị na-akpọ nkụ ṅụjuo afọ.
10 Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
Ụfọdụ nọdụrụ ala nʼọchịchịrị na nʼọnọdụ oke ihe mwute nke obi, ndị nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ na-ata ahụhụ ndị e ji mkpọrọ igwe kee ha agbụ,
11 because they rebelled against the words of God, and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
nʼihi na ha nupuru isi megide okwu niile nke Chineke ma lelikwaa ndụmọdụ niile nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu.
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help.
Nʼihi ya, Chineke mere ka ha hụjuo anya site nʼịdọgbu onwe ha nʼọrụ, ha sụrụ ngọngọ daa, ma ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nyeere ha aka ibilite ọtọ.
13 Then they cried to YHWH in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha, ọ zọpụtara ha site na mkpagbu ha niile.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bonds in sunder.
O mere ka ha site nʼọchịchịrị na oke ihe mwute nke obi pụta. O tijikwara agbụ ha niile.
15 Let them praise YHWH for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works for the descendants of Adam.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya, nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ,
16 For he has broken the gates of bronze, and cut through bars of iron.
nʼihi na o tijisiela ọnụ ụzọ ama niile e ji bronz kpụọ gbujiekwa mkpọrọ ịkpọchi ụzọ niile e ji igwe kpụọ.
17 Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and because of their iniquities.
Ụfọdụ ghọrọ ndị nzuzu site na nnupu isi taakwa ahụhụ nʼihi njehie ha niile.
18 Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.
Ihe oriri ọbụla ghọọrọ ha ihe rụrụ arụ ha bịakwara ọnụ ụzọ ama ọnwụ nso.
19 Then they cried to YHWH in their trouble; he saved them out of their distresses.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha ọ zọpụtara ha site na mkpagbu ahụ niile.
20 He sent his word and healed them; he delivered them from their traps.
O zipụrụ okwu ọnụ ya, gwọọ ha; ọ napụtara ha site nʼili.
21 Let them praise YHWH for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works for the descendants of Adam.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ.
22 Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with singing.
Ka ha chụọ aja ekele nye ya jirikwa ọtụtụ abụ ọṅụ kwupụta banyere ọrụ ya niile.
23 Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in great waters;
Ụfọdụ ji ụgbọ mmiri na-ejegharị nʼelu oke osimiri; ha bụ ndị na-azụ ahịa ma na-ebugharịkwa ngwa ahịa nʼelu oke osimiri.
24 These see YHWH's works, and his wonders in the deep.
Ha hụrụ ọrụ niile nke Onyenwe anyị, ọtụtụ ọrụ ebube ya nʼogbu mmiri.
25 For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up its waves.
Nʼihi na o kwuru okwu mere ka oke ifufe kuo nke buliri ebili mmiri elu.
26 They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.
Ha bụ ndị e buliri nnọọ ezigbo elu, ma budatakwa ruo ogbu mmiri niile; nʼọnọdụ ihe egwu ahụ, obi lọrọ ha mmiri.
27 They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.
Ha na-adagharị, na-aṅagharịkwa dịka ndị ṅụbigara mmanya oke. Mmụta ha banyere ịnya ụgbọ mmiri adịghị enyekwara ha aka nʼoge dị otu a.
28 Then they cry to YHWH in their trouble, and he brings them out of their distress.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị nʼime nsogbu ha, o mere ka ha pụta na mkpagbu ahụ niile.
29 He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
O mere ka oke ifufe dere duu; o mekwara ka ebili mmiri nke oke osimiri dajụọ.
30 Then they are glad because it is calm, so he brings them to their desired haven.
Ha ṅụrịrị ọṅụ mgbe ọ dajụrụ, o duuru ha ruo ebe ha na-aga nʼudo.
31 Let them praise YHWH for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works for the descendants of Adam.
Ka ha kelee Onyenwe anyị nʼihi ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ na nʼihi ọrụ ebube ya niile nye ụmụ mmadụ.
32 Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.
Ka ha bulie ya elu nʼetiti ọgbakọ ukwu ụmụ mmadụ ma tookwa ya na nzukọ ndị okenye.
33 He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,
Ọ na-eme ka iyi ghọọ ọzara; na-emekwa ka ebe mmiri si asọpụta ghọọ ala kpọrọ nkụ.
34 and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
Ọ na-eme ka ala na-amị mkpụrụ hiri nne ghọọ ọzara, nʼihi ajọ omume nke ndị bi nʼime ya.
35 He turns a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into water springs.
Ọ na-eme ka ọzara ghọọ ala nke ọdọ mmiri jupụtara mee ka ala akọrọ ghọọ isi iyi nke na-asọ asọ;
36 There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city to live in,
ebe ahụ ka ọ kpọbatara ndị agụụ na-agụ ka ha biri, ebe ahụ ka ha wuru obodo ebe ha ga-ebi.
37 sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.
Ha ghara mkpụrụ nʼubi ha dị iche iche, kụọkwa ọtụtụ ubi vaịnị ndị mịrị mkpụrụ dị ukwuu;
38 He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn't allow their livestock to decrease.
ọ gọziri ha, ọnụọgụgụ ha bakwara ụba, o mekwara ka anụ ụlọ ha mụbaa.
39 Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
Mgbe ahụ, ọnụọgụgụ ha adịghịkwa ka ọ dị na mbụ, ha bụ ndị e ji mkpagbu na ihe ndakwasị na iru ụjụ wedata nʼala;
40 He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
onye ahụ na-eleda ndị na-achị achị anya mere ka ha wagharịa nʼọzara, ebe ụzọ na-adịghị.
41 Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases their families like a flock.
Ma ọ na-anapụta ndị mkpa na-akpa site na nhụju anya ha, mee ka ezinaụlọ ha mụbaa dịka igwe anụ ụlọ.
42 The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.
Ndị ezi omume na-ahụ ya na-aṅụrị ọṅụ, ma ndị ajọ omume na-emechi ọnụ ha nọọ duu.
43 Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of YHWH.
Onye ọbụla maara ihe ga-echezi echiche banyere ihe ndị a, ma tuleekwa ọrụ ịhụnanya Onyenwe anyị nke dị ukwuu.
