< Psalms 91 >

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High, Under the shadow of the Almighty, will tarry,
Onye ahụ na-ebi nʼebe mgbaba Onye kachasị ihe niile elu ga-ezu ike nʼokpuru ndo Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
2 Saying of Yahweh—My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I will 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 For, he, will rescue thee, From the snare of the fowler, From the destructive 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 With his pinion, will he cover thee, And, under his wings, shalt thou seek refuge, A shield and buckler, is his faithfulness.
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 dread of the night, Of the arrow that flieth by day;
Ị gaghị atụ egwu ihe ịtụ oke egwu nke abalị, maọbụ àkụ na-efegharị nʼehihie,
6 Of the pestilence that, in darkness, doth walk, Of the plague that layeth waste at noonday.
maọbụ ajọ ọrịa na-efe efe, nke na-ejegharị nʼọchịchịrị, ma ọ bụkwanụ ihe mbibi mberede na-eme nʼehihie.
7 There shall fall, at thy side, a thousand, Yea, myriads, at thy right hand, Unto thee, shall it not come nigh;
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 Save only, with thine own eyes, shalt thou discern, And, the recompense of the lawless, shalt thou see.
Ọ bụ naanị anya gị abụọ ka ị ga-eji hụ ntaramahụhụ nke ndị ajọ omume.
9 Because, thou, [hast made] Yahweh, my refuge, —The Most High, thou hast made thy dwelling-place,
Ọ bụrụ na i mee Onye kachasị ihe niile elu ebe obibi gị, ọ bụladị Onyenwe anyị, onye bụ ebe mgbaba m,
10 There shall not be sent unto thee misfortune, Nor shall, plague, come near into thy tent;
mgbe ahụ, ihe ọjọọ ọbụla enweghị ike ịdakwasị gị; ihe ike ọbụla enweghị ike ịbịaru ụlọ obibi gị nso.
11 For, his messengers, will he charge concerning thee, To keep 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 On hands, will they bear thee up, Lest thou strike, against a stone, thy foot;
Ha ga-eji ọbụ aka ha, bulie gị elu ime ka ị ghara ịkpọbi ụkwụ gị na nkume.
13 On the lion and adder, shalt thou tread, Shalt trample on young lion and crocodile.
Ị ga-azọkwasị ọdụm na ajụala ụkwụ, zọgbukwaa ọdụm na-akpa ike, na agwọ ọjọọ.
14 Because, on me, he hath set firm his love, Therefore will I deliver him, I will set him on high, Because he hath known 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 He shall call me, and I will answer him, With him, will, I, be, in distress, I will rescue him, and will honour him;
Ọ ga-akpọku m, aga m azakwa ya. Aga m anọnyere ya nʼime nsogbu ya, aga m adọpụta, ma sọpụrụkwa ya.
16 With length of days, will I satisfy him, And will show him my salvation.
Aga m eji ogologo ndụ mee ka afọ ju ya, gosikwa ya nzọpụta m.”
