Abụ Ọma 10
1 Onyenwe anyị, gịnị mere i ji na-eguzoro onwe gị nʼebe dị anya? Gịnị mere ị na-ezo onwe gị nʼoge nsogbu?
Why do you stand far off, LORD? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
2 Site na mpako, onye ajọ omume na-emegbu ndị na-adịghị ike, ndị mpịa mpịa aghụghọ ya mara dịka ọnya.
In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak. They are caught in the schemes that they devise.
3 Ọ na-anya isi banyere ọchịchọ niile nke obi ya, ọ na-elelị Onyenwe anyị anya ma na-agọzi ndị oke ọchịchọ.
For the wicked boasts of his heart's cravings, and he blesses the greedy, scorning the LORD.
4 Nʼọnọdụ mpako ya, onye ajọ omume anaghị achọ Chineke, nʼechiche ya niile, ọ naghị eche banyere ya.
The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek. All his thoughts are "There is no God."
5 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.
His ways are firm at all times. Your judgments are turned aside. As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.
6 Nʼime obi ya, ọ na-asị, “Ọ dịghị ihe ga-emetụta m. Aga m anọ nʼọnọdụ ọṅụ mgbe niile. Nsogbu ọbụla agaghị adakwasị m.”
He says in his heart, "I shall not be shaken. From generation to generation I shall not experience calamity."
7 Ọnụ ya jupụtara nʼokwu ụgha na ịba mba ime ihe ọjọọ, nʼokpuru ire ya ka nsogbu na ajọ ihe dịkwa.
His mouth is full of cursing and bitterness and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
8 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.
He lies in wait near the villages. From ambushes, he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.
9 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.
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.
10 Ụmụ ogbenye ndị a na-ada nʼala nʼihi ịdị ike ya, ọ na-azọpịakwa ha.
The helpless are crushed. They collapse. They fall under his strength.
11 Nʼime obi ya, ọ na-asị, “Chineke echefuola. O zofuola ihu ya, ọ dịghị mgbe ọ hụrụ ya.”
He says in his heart, "God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it."
12 Bilie O Onyenwe anyị! O Chineke welie aka gị, echefukwala ndị na-enweghị onye inyeaka.
Arise, LORD. God, lift up your hand. Do not forget the helpless.
13 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”?
Why does the wicked person condemn God, and say in his heart, "You will not seek (an accounting)."
14 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.
But you do see trouble and grief. You consider it to take it into your hand. You help the victim and the fatherless.
15 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.
Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.
16 Onyenwe anyị bụ eze ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Ọ ga-esite nʼala ya kpochapụ mba niile.
The LORD is King forever and ever. The nations have perished from his land.
17 O Onyenwe anyị, ị maara ọchịchọ obi ndị niile a na-akpagbu; ị na-ege ntị na mkpu akwa ha ma kasịekwa ha obi,
LORD, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,
18 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.
to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.
