< Psalms 69 >

1 To the Overseer. — 'On the Lilies,' by David. Save me, O God, for come have waters unto the soul.
Abụ Ọma dịrị onyeisi abụ. Eji olu abụ “Okoko Lili.” Abụ Devid. O Chineke, zọpụta m, nʼihi na mmiri abịaruola m nʼolu.
2 I have sunk in deep mire, And there is no standing, I have come into the depths of the waters, And a flood hath overflown me.
Ana m emikpu nʼụrụrọ ebe dị omimi, e nwekwaghị ebe ịzọkwasị ụkwụ dị. Abịala m nʼebe mmiri dị omimi; uju mmiri na-achọkwa ikpuchigide m.
3 I have been wearied with my calling, Burnt hath been my throat, Consumed have been mine eyes, waiting for my God.
Akpịrị akpọọla m nkụ; ike agwụla m ebe m na-akpọ oku maka enyemaka. Anya m agbaala ọchịchịrị ebe m na-ele anya Chineke.
4 Those hating me without cause Have been more than the hairs of my head, Mighty have been my destroyers, My lying enemies, That which I took not away — I bring back.
Ndị kpọrọ m asị nʼefu dị ukwuu karịa agịrị isi dị m nʼisi. Ndị na-achọ ịla ndụ m nʼiyi dị ukwuu, bụ ndị họọrọ ịbụ ndị iro m, mgbe ọ na-adịghị ihe ọbụla m mere ha. Ha nọgidesịrị m ike mee ka m nyeghachi ihe m na-ezughị nʼohi.
5 O God, Thou — Thou hast known Concerning my overturn, And my desolations from Thee have not been hid.
Gị, Chineke, ị maara enweghị uche m niile; ikpe ọmụma m abụghị ihe zoro ezo nʼihu gị.
6 Let not those waiting on Thee be ashamed because of me, O Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Let not those seeking Thee Blush because of me, O God of Israel.
Ekwela ka ihere mee ndị na-atụkwasị gị obi nʼihi m, O Onyenwe m, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile; ka ndị na-achọ gị ghara ịbụ ndị a ga-eme ihe ihere nʼihi m, O Chineke nke Izrel.
7 For because of Thee I have borne reproach, Shame hath covered my face.
Ọ bụ nʼihi gị ka m na-anagide ịkwa emo, ihere ekpuchiela m ihu.
8 A stranger I have been to my brother, And a foreigner to sons of my mother.
Abụ m ọbịa nʼebe ụmụnna m nọ, nʼebe ụmụnne nọ, abụ m onye mba ọzọ.
9 For zeal for Thy house hath consumed me, And the reproaches of Thy reproachers Have fallen upon me.
Nʼihi na ihe gbasara ụlọ gị na-anụ m ọkụ nʼobi, ịta ụta niile nke ndị na-akparị gị adakwasịla m.
10 And I weep in the fasting of my soul, And it is for a reproach to me.
Mgbe m na-ebe akwa na-ebukwa ọnụ, ha kparịrị m nʼihi na m na-eme nke a.
11 And I make my clothing sackcloth, And I am to them for a simile.
Mgbe m yikwasịrị uwe iru ụjụ m, a ghọrọ m ihe ha ji eme ihe ọchị.
12 Those sitting at the gate meditate concerning me, And those drinking strong drink, Play on instruments.
Ndị na-anọ ọnọdụ ala nʼọnụ ụzọ ama, na-akwa m emo, na-akọ m ọnụ, abụ m isi abụ nke ndị na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke na-abụ.
13 And I — my prayer [is] to Thee, O Jehovah, A time of good pleasure, O God, In the abundance of Thy kindness, Answer me in the truth of Thy salvation.
O Onyenwe anyị, ana m akpọku gị nʼekpere, nʼoge ihuọma gị; na oke ịhụnanya gị, O Chineke m, zaa m nʼeziokwu nke nzọpụta gị.
14 Deliver me from the mire, and let me not sink, Let me be delivered from those hating me, And from deep places of waters.
Dọpụta m site nʼụrụrọ, ekwela ka m mikpuo; zọpụta m site nʼaka ndị kpọrọ m asị, site na mmiri miri emi.
15 Let not a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut her mouth upon me.
Ekwela ka uju mmiri kpuchie m, maọbụ ka ebe dị omimi loda m, ma ọ bụkwanụ ka olulu lomie m, kpuchie m nʼime ọnụ ya.
16 Answer me, O Jehovah, for good [is] Thy kindness, According to the abundance Of Thy mercies turn Thou unto me,
O Onyenwe anyị, zaa m, site nʼịdị mma nke ịhụnanya gị, nʼime ịdị ukwuu nke oke ebere gị, chee m ihu.
17 And hide not Thy face from Thy servant, For I am in distress — haste, answer me.
Ezonarịla mụ bụ ohu gị ihu gị. Anọ m na nsogbu, mee ngwangwa zaa m!
18 Be near unto my soul — redeem it, Because of mine enemies ransom me.
Bịa m nso zọpụta m. Gbapụta m site nʼaka ndị iro m.
19 Thou — Thou hast known my reproach, And my shame, and my blushing, Before Thee [are] all mine adversaries.
Ị maara ihe niile banyere ihe ọchị ha ji m mee, mweda nʼala m na ihe ihere: ndị iro m niile nọkwa gị nʼihu.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am sick, And I look for a bemoaner, and there is none, And for comforters, and I have found none.
Ọchị ha na-achị m etiwaala m obi, ma hapụ m nʼọnọdụ enweghị inyeaka. Elere m anya onye ga-emere m ebere, ma ọ dịghị onye ọbụla m hụrụ; lee anya ndị ga-akasị m obi, ma ọ dịkwaghị onye m chọtara.
21 And they give for my food gall, And for my thirst cause me to drink vinegar.
Ha tinyere oluilu nʼime nri m, nyekwa m mmanya gbara ụka ka m ṅụọ.
22 Their table before them is for a snare, And for a recompence — for a trap.
Ka tebul e debere nʼihu ha ghọrọ ha ọnya; ka ọ bụrụ ha ihe ịbọ ọbọ mgbe ha nọ nʼudo ya ghọrọ ha ọnya igbudu.
23 Darkened are their eyes from seeing, And their loins continually shake Thou.
Ka anya ha gbaa ọchịchịrị, ka ha gharakwa ịhụ ụzọ ọzọ, mekwa ka ụkwụ ha na-ama jijiji mgbe niile.
24 Pour upon them Thine indignation, And the fierceness of Thine anger doth seize them.
Wụkwasị ha oke iwe gị, ka iwe gị dị ọkụ zute ha.
25 Their tower is desolated, In their tents there is no dweller.
Ka ebe obibi ha tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ka mmadụ ọbụla gharakwa ibi nʼime ụlọ ikwu ha.
26 For they have pursued him Thou hast smitten, And recount of the pain of Thy pierced ones.
Ha na-akpagbu ndị ahụ i merụrụ ahụ, na-ekwukwa banyere ihe mgbu ndị ahụ i kwohịara ahụ.
27 Give punishment for their iniquity, And they enter not into Thy righteousness.
Boo ha ebubo ajọ omume tụkwasị nʼelu ajọ omume, ekwekwala ka ha keta oke na ezi omume gị.
28 They are blotted out of the book of life, And with the righteous are not written.
Mee ka e hichapụ aha ha site nʼakwụkwọ nke ndụ, ka a hapụ idekọta aha ha na nke ndị ezi omume.
29 And I [am] afflicted and pained, Thy salvation, O God, doth set me on high.
Anọ m nʼụfụ na ihe mgbu, O Chineke, mee ka nzọpụta gị kpuchie m.
30 I praise the name of God with a song, And I magnify Him with thanksgiving,
Aga m eji ịbụ abụ too aha Chineke, jirikwa ekele bulie ya elu.
31 And it is better to Jehovah than an ox, A bullock — horned — hoofed.
Nke a ga-atọ Onyenwe anyị ụtọ karịa oke ehi, karịa oke ehi, nke mpi ya na ụkwụ ya ka dị.
32 The humble have seen — they rejoice, Ye who seek God — and your heart liveth.
Ndị ogbenye ga-ahụ ya ma ṅụrịakwa ọṅụ; unu ndị na-achọ Chineke, ka obi unu na-adị ndụ.
33 For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones He hath not despised.
Onyenwe anyị na-anụ ekpere ndị nọ na mkpa, ọ naghị eledakwa ndị ya a dọtara nʼagha anya.
34 The heavens and earth do praise Him, Seas, and every moving thing in them.
Ka eluigwe na ụwa too ya, osimiri niile na ihe niile bi nʼime ha.
35 For God doth save Zion, And doth build the cities of Judah, And they have dwelt there, and possess it.
Nʼihi na Chineke ga-azọpụta Zayọn; ọ ga-ewugharị obodo niile nke Juda. Mgbe ahụ, ndị mmadụ ga-ebi nʼime ya, mee ya ihe nweta ha.
36 And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those loving His name dwell in it!
Ụmụ ndị na-ejere ya ozi ga-eketa ya, ndị hụrụ aha ya nʼanya ga-ebikwa ebe ahụ nʼime ya.
