< Psalms 90 >

1 Lord, you have always (been [like] a home for us/protected us) [MET].
Ekpere Mosis, bụ onyeozi Chineke. O Onyenwe anyị, ebe obibi ka gị onwe gị bụrịị nye anyị nʼọgbọ niile.
2 Before you created the mountains, before you formed the earth and everything that is in it, you were eternally God, and you will be God forever.
Tupu e kee ugwu niile, na tupu a kpụọ ụwa na elu ụwa, siterị na mgbe ebighị ebi ruo ebighị ebi, ị bụ Chineke.
3 [When people die], you cause their corpses to become soil again; you change their corpses to become dirt like [the first man] was created from.
Ị na-eme ka mmadụ laghachi bụrụ aja mgbe i kwuru okwu sị, “Unu ụmụ mmadụ, laghachi bụrụ aja.”
4 When you (consider/think about) time, 1,000 years are [as short as] [SIM] one day which passes; [you consider that] [HYP] they are as short as a few hours in the night.
Puku afọ dị nʼanya gị dịka otu ụbọchị; ha dịka ụnyaahụ gafere agafe maọbụ ka otu awa nke anyasị.
5 You cause people suddenly to die [MET]; they [live only a short time], like a dream lasts only a short time. They are like grass/weeds [SIM] that grow up.
Nʼime ụra nke ọnwụ ka ị na-ekpochapụ mmadụ; ha dịka ahịhịa ọhụrụ nke na-epupụta nʼisi ụtụtụ,
6 In the morning [DOU] the grass sprouts and grows well, but in the evening it dries up and (completely withers/dies).
ọ bụ ezie na ọ na-agbawa ụzarị na-etokwa eto nʼụtụtụ, ma nʼanyasị, ọ na-akpọnwụ ma-achanwụkwaa.
7 [Similarly], [because of the sins that we have committed], you become angry with us; you terrify us and then you destroy us.
E meela ka anyị gwụsịa nʼihi oke iwe gị megide anyị; anyị na-amakwa jijiji nʼihi ọnụma gị.
8 [It is as though] you place our sins in front of you, you spread out even our secret sins where you can see them.
Ị gbasaala njehie anyị niile nʼihu gị. Ị na-ahụzukwa mmehie nzuzo anyị niile.
9 Because you are angry with us, you cause our lives to end; the years that we live pass as quickly as a sigh does.
Ogologo ụbọchị anyị niile na-agabiga nʼoke iwe gị; afọ ndụ anyị nke fọdụrụ ka anyị na-ebi dịka okwu e ji nwayọọ kwuo na mwute.
10 People live for only 70 years; but if they are strong, some of them live for 80 years. But even during good years we have much pain and troubles; our lives soon end, and we die [EUP].
Ogologo ụbọchị anyị niile nwere ike ruo afọ iri asaa, maọbụ afọ iri asatọ, ma ọ bụrụ na ike anyị adịgide, ma otu ọ dị, nke a ga-asị na ọ bụ ya kachasị mma na-ejupụta na nsogbu na ịsụ ude, nʼihi na ha na-agabiga ọsịịsọ, anyị onwe anyị na-efelakwa.
11 No one [RHQ] has fully experienced the powerful things you can do to them when you are angry with them, and people are not afraid that you will greatly punish them because of your being angry with them.
Onye pụrụ ịghọta ịdị ike nke oke iwe gị? Nʼihi na oke iwe gị dị ukwuu dịka ịtụ egwu kwesiri gị si dị ukwuu.
12 So teach/help us to realize that we live for only a short time in order that we may [use our time] wisely.
Kuziere anyị ịgụ ụbọchị niile nke ndụ anyị ọnụ, ka anyị si otu a nweta obi amamihe jupụtara.
13 Yahweh, how long [will you be angry with us]? Pity us who serve you.
O Onyenwe anyị, nwee ntụgharị obi! Tutu ruo ole mgbe ka ọ ga-adị? Meere ndị ohu gị ebere.
14 Each morning show us that your faithfully loving us is enough for us in order that we may shout joyfully and be happy for the rest of our lives.
Jiri ịhụnanya gị nke na-adịgide adịgide, mejupụta anyị nʼụtụtụ, ka anyị nwee ike ịbụ abụ ọṅụ ma nwekwaa obi ụtọ ogologo ụbọchị ndụ anyị niile.
15 Cause us to now be as happy for as many years as you (afflicted us/caused us to be sad) and we experienced troubles.
Mee ka anyị nwee obi ụtọ, nke ọnụọgụgụ ụbọchị ya ga-adịkwa ka ọnụọgụgụ ụbọchị niile ị tara anyị ahụhụ, ka ọnụọgụgụ afọ ya dịkwa ka ọnụọgụgụ afọ niile anyị hụrụla nsogbu.
16 Enable us to see the [great] things that you do and enable our descendants to [also] see your glorious power.
Kwere ka ndị ohu gị hụ ọrụ gị dị iche iche, ka ụmụ ha hụkwa ịma mma gị.
17 Lord, our God, give us your blessings and enable us to be successful; yes, cause us to be successful in [everything] that we do [DOU]!
Ka ihuọma Chineke, Onyenwe anyị dịkwasị anyị; mee ka ọrụ aka anyị guzosie ike, e, mee ka ọrụ aka anyị guzosie ike.
