< Psalms 91 >
1 He who sitteth under the shelter of the Most High Maketh his abode in the shadow of the Almighty.
Onye ahụ na-ebi nʼebe mgbaba Onye kachasị ihe niile elu ga-ezu ike nʼokpuru ndo Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
2 I say to the LORD, Thou art my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust.
Nke a ka m ga-ekwu maka Onyenwe anyị, “Ọ bụ ebe mgbaba m na ebe nchebe m e wusiri ike, Chineke m, onye m na-atụkwasị obi m.”
3 Surely he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the wasting pestilence;
Nʼezie, ọ ga-anapụta gị site nʼọnya nke onye osi ọnya na site nʼaka ajọ ọrịa na-efe efe na-eweta ịla nʼiyi.
4 He will cover thee with his feathers, And under his wings shalt thou find refuge; His faithfulness shall be thy shield and buckler.
Ọ ga-eji nku ya kpuchie gị. Ọ bụkwa nʼokpuru nku ya abụọ, ka ị ga-agbaba zere ndụ, ikwesi ntụkwasị obi ya ga-echebe gị, ghọkwaara gị ọta.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night, Nor of the arrow that flieth by day;
Ị gaghị atụ egwu ihe ịtụ oke egwu nke abalị, maọbụ àkụ na-efegharị nʼehihie,
6 Nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, Nor of the plague that destroyeth at noonday.
maọbụ ajọ ọrịa na-efe efe, nke na-ejegharị nʼọchịchịrị, ma ọ bụkwanụ ihe mbibi mberede na-eme nʼehihie.
7 A thousand shall fall by thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; But thee it shall not touch.
Puku mmadụ pụrụ ịda nʼakụkụ gị, iri puku mmadụ nwekwara ike ịda nʼakụkụ aka nri gị, ma ihe ọjọọ ndị a agaghị erute gị nso.
8 Thou shalt only behold with thine eyes, And see the recompense of the wicked.
Ọ bụ naanị anya gị abụọ ka ị ga-eji hụ ntaramahụhụ nke ndị ajọ omume.
9 Because thou hast made the LORD thy refuge, And the Most High thy habitation,
Ọ bụrụ na i mee Onye kachasị ihe niile elu ebe obibi gị, ọ bụladị Onyenwe anyị, onye bụ ebe mgbaba m,
10 No evil shall befall thee, Nor any plague come near thy dwelling.
mgbe ahụ, ihe ọjọọ ọbụla enweghị ike ịdakwasị gị; ihe ike ọbụla enweghị ike ịbịaru ụlọ obibi gị nso.
11 For he will give his angels charge over thee, To guard thee in all thy ways.
Nʼihi na ọ ga-enye ndị mmụọ ozi ya iwu banyere gị, ka ha chebe gị nʼụzọ gị niile.
12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Ha ga-eji ọbụ aka ha, bulie gị elu ime ka ị ghara ịkpọbi ụkwụ gị na nkume.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and the adder; The young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under foot.
Ị ga-azọkwasị ọdụm na ajụala ụkwụ, zọgbukwaa ọdụm na-akpa ike, na agwọ ọjọọ.
14 “Because he loveth me, I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knoweth my name.
“Nʼihi na ọ hụrụ m nʼanya, Mụ onwe m ga-agbapụta ya, ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru; aga m echebe ya, nʼihi na ọ maara aha m.
15 When he calleth upon me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and bring him to honor.
Ọ ga-akpọku m, aga m azakwa ya. Aga m anọnyere ya nʼime nsogbu ya, aga m adọpụta, ma sọpụrụkwa ya.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation.”
Aga m eji ogologo ndụ mee ka afọ ju ya, gosikwa ya nzọpụta m.”
