The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.
7 O mere ka Mosis mata ụzọ ya, mekwaa ka ụmụ Izrel mara ọrụ ya dị iche iche:
He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.
8 Onyenwe anyị nwere obi ọmịiko na-emekwa amara. Ọ dịghị ewe iwe ọsịịsọ, o jupụtara nʼịhụnanya.
The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.

His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.

He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
11 Nʼihi na dịka eluigwe si dị elu karịa ụwa, otu a ka ịhụnanya ya si dị ukwuu nʼebe ndị na-atụ egwu ya nọ.
For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.
13 Dịka nna si enwe obi ebere nʼebe ụmụ ya nọ, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị si enwe obi ebere nʼebe ndị na-atụ egwu ya nọ,
As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.
14 nʼihi na ya onwe ya maara otu e si kpụọ anyị, ọ na-echeta na anyị bụ aja.
For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
15 Ebe mmadụ nọ, ụbọchị ya niile dị ka ahịhịa, ọ na-etopụta, na-awasa dịka okoko osisi ọhịa,
As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.
16 ifufe na-efesi ya ike, ọ na-adakwa, adịghị echetakwa ya nʼọnọdụ mbụ ya.
The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.

But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;

If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.

The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.

Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.

Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.

Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
