Psalms 51
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving-kindness: according to the multitude of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
Abụ dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ Ọma Devid. Mgbe Netan bụ onye amụma bịakwutere Devid nʼoge ya na Batsheba kwara iko. O Chineke, meere m ebere, nʼihi ịhụnanya gị nke na-adịgide adịgide; nʼihi oke ọmịiko gị, hichapụ njehie m niile.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
Sachapụ mmehie m niile, ma mee m ka m dị ọcha.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin [is] ever before me.
Nʼihi na amaara m njehie m niile, mmehie m dịkwa nʼihu m mgbe niile.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done [this] evil in thy sight: that thou mayest be justified when thou speakest, [and] be clear when thou judgest.
Ọ bụkwa naanị gị ka m mehiere megide, mee ihe ahụ bụ ihe ọjọọ nʼihu gị, nke mere na ị bụ onye na-ekpe ikpe ziri ezi mgbe ị na-ekwu okwu, na onye ezi omume mgbe ị na-ekpe ikpe.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Nʼezie, onye mmehie ka m bụ site nʼoge amụrụ m; bụrụkwa onye mmehie site nʼoge nne m tụrụ ime m.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden [part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
Nʼezie, ị na-achọ eziokwu nʼakụkụ niile zoro ezo; ị na-akụziri m amamihe nʼakụkụ niile zoro ezo.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Were hisọp sachaa m, aga m adị ọcha; sachaa m ka m dị ọcha karịa snoo.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; [that] the bones [which] thou hast broken may rejoice.
Mee ka m nụrụ olu obi ụtọ na ọṅụ; ka okpukpu ndị i gwepịara ṅụrịkwaa.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
Zopu ihu gị nʼebe mmehie m niile dị, hichapụkwa mmehie m niile.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Kee obi dị ọcha nʼime m, O Chineke, nwogharịa ezi mmụọ nʼime m.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Achụpụla m nʼihu gị, anapụkwala m Mmụọ Nsọ gị.
12 Restore to me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me [with thy] free spirit.
Nyeghachikwa m ọṅụ nke nzọpụta gị, ma jiri ezi mmụọ kwagide m.
13 [Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted to thee.
Mgbe ahụ, aga m enwe ike izi ndị njehie ụzọ gị, ndị mmehie ga-echegharị lọghachikwute gị.
14 Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: [and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
O Chineke, zọpụta m site nʼikpe ọmụma nke mwụfu ọbara, Chineke, gị bụ Chineke Onye nzọpụta m, ire m ga-abụ abụ banyere ezi omume gị.
15 O LORD, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall show forth thy praise.
O, Onyenwe m, meghee ọnụ m, ka m kwupụta otuto gị.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice: else would I give [it]: thou delightest not in burnt-offering.
Ị naghị enwe mmasị nʼaja, ma ọ bụghị ya, agaara m eweta ya. Ị naghị enwe mmasị nʼaja nsure ọkụ.
17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Aja Chineke chọrọ bụ mmụọ tiwara etiwa, O Chineke, ị naghị elefu anya, nʼobi tiwara etiwa na nke nwere ezi nchegharị.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure to Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
Ka ọ masị gị inye Zayọn ọganihu; i wulie mgbidi niile nke Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt-offering and whole burnt-offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thy altar.
Mgbe ahụ, a ga-enwe ezi aja, aja nsure ọkụ nke ga-atọ gị ụtọ; mgbe ahụ, a ga-achụkwa aja ọtụtụ oke ehi nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja gị.
