Psalms 10
1 Why do you stand far off, Yahweh? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
Onyenwe anyị, gịnị mere i ji na-eguzoro onwe gị nʼebe dị anya? Gịnị mere ị na-ezo onwe gị nʼoge nsogbu?
2 In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak. They are caught in the schemes that they devise.
Site na mpako, onye ajọ omume na-emegbu ndị na-adịghị ike, ndị mpịa mpịa aghụghọ ya mara dịka ọnya.
3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s cravings. He blesses the greedy and condemns Yahweh.
Ọ na-anya isi banyere ọchịchọ niile nke obi ya, ọ na-elelị Onyenwe anyị anya ma na-agọzi ndị oke ọchịchọ.
4 The wicked, in the pride of his face, has no room in his thoughts for God.
Nʼọnọdụ mpako ya, onye ajọ omume anaghị achọ Chineke, nʼechiche ya niile, ọ naghị eche banyere ya.
5 His ways are prosperous at all times. He is arrogant, and your laws are far from his sight. As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.
Ma ihe niile ọ na-eme na-agara ya nke ọma; ọ bụ onye na-ebuli onwe ya elu, iwu gị niile dịkwa anya site nʼebe ọ nọ; ọ na-elelị ndị iro ya niile.
6 He says in his heart, “I shall not be shaken. For generations I shall have no trouble.”
Nʼime obi ya, ọ na-asị, “Ọ dịghị ihe ga-emetụta m. Aga m anọ nʼọnọdụ ọṅụ mgbe niile. Nsogbu ọbụla agaghị adakwasị m.”
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
Ọnụ ya jupụtara nʼokwu ụgha na ịba mba ime ihe ọjọọ, nʼokpuru ire ya ka nsogbu na ajọ ihe dịkwa.
8 He lies in wait near the villages. From ambushes, he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.
Ha na-ezo onwe ha nʼobodo nta dị iche iche, nʼebe zooro ezo ka ha na-anọ, na-eche itigbu ndị aka ha dị ọcha.
9 He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush. He lies in wait to catch the helpless. He catches the helpless when he draws him in his net.
Dịka ọdụm, ha anaghị eme mkpọtụ ọbụla, ọ na-eche ịdakwasị ụmụ ogbenye. Dịka ndị bụ dinta si ejide ụmụ anụmanụ nʼọnya ha siri, otu a ka ha si ejide ụmụ ogbenye.
10 The helpless are crushed. They collapse. They fall under his strength.
Ụmụ ogbenye ndị a na-ada nʼala nʼihi ịdị ike ya, ọ na-azọpịakwa ha.
11 He says in his heart, “God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.”
Nʼime obi ya, ọ na-asị, “Chineke echefuola. O zofuola ihu ya, ọ dịghị mgbe ọ hụrụ ya.”
12 Arise, Yahweh! God, lift up your hand! Don’t forget the helpless.
Bilie O Onyenwe anyị! O Chineke welie aka gị, echefukwala ndị na-enweghị onye inyeaka.
13 Why does the wicked person condemn God, and say in his heart, “God won’t call me into account”?
Gịnị mere onye ajọ omume ji na-eleda Chineke anya? Gịnị mere o ji na-asị nʼime obi ya, “Ọ gaghị akpọ m ka m zaa ajụjụ banyere omume m”?
14 But you do see trouble and grief. You consider it to take it into your hand. You help the victim and the fatherless.
Ma gị, O Chineke, ị na-ahụ nsogbu na ihe mwute, ị na-atule ihe ị ga-eme banyere ha. Ndị a na-emegbu na-atụkwasị gị obi, nʼihi na ị bụ onye inyeaka ndị na-enweghị nna.
15 Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.
Gbajie aka onye ajọ omume a na-eme ihe ọjọọ, kpọọ ya ka ọ zaa ajụjụ banyere ajọ omume ya niile nke a na-apụghị ịchọpụta.
16 Yahweh is King forever and ever! The nations will perish out of his land.
Onyenwe anyị bụ eze ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Ọ ga-esite nʼala ya kpochapụ mba niile.
17 Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,
O Onyenwe anyị, ị maara ọchịchọ obi ndị niile a na-akpagbu; ị na-ege ntị na mkpu akwa ha ma kasịekwa ha obi,
18 to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.
Ị na-echedo ndị na-enweghị nna na ndị niile a na-emegbu emegbu, ka mmadụ efu, onye e kere eke, ghara imenye ha egwu ọzọ.
