Praise the Lord! Thank the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love lasts forever.
2 Onye pụrụ ikwupụtasịcha ihe ukwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị na-arụ maọbụ kwupụta otuto ya niile?
Who can give an account of all the wonderful things the Lord has done? Who can give him all the praise he is due?
3 Ndị a gọziri agọzi ka ha bụ, bụ ndị na-edebe ikpe ziri ezi, ndị ahụ na-eme ezi ihe mgbe niile.
Happy are those who treat people fairly, who always do what is right.
4 O Onyenwe anyị, cheta m mgbe ị ga-egosi ndị gị ihuọma, bịa leta m, mgbe ị na-azọpụta ha,
Please remember me when you are generous to your people; think of me when you come to save.
5 ka m soro keta oke na ngọzị ndị gị ị họpụtara, ka m keta oke nʼọṅụ ahụ dịrị mba gị sorokwa ihe nketa gị nye otuto.
Let me see your chosen people prosperous; let me be happy together with your nation; let me share in being proud of you with those who belong to you.
6 Anyị emehiela, dịka nna nna anyị ha mehiere; anyị emeela ihe ọjọọ, rụọkwa ọrụ ajọ omume.
We have sinned just like our forefathers. We have done wrong. We are guilty.
7 Mgbe nna nna anyị ha nọ nʼIjipt, ha echeghị uche banyere ọrụ ebube gị niile; ha echetakwaghị ịba ụba nke ebere gị niile, kama ha nupuru isi nʼakụkụ oke osimiri ahụ, bụ Osimiri Uhie.
They didn't pay attention to the wonderful things you did. They didn't keep in mind how much you loved them, but chose to rebel at the sea, the Red Sea.
8 Ma ọ zọpụtara ha nʼihi aha ya, ime ka a mara ike ya dị ukwuu.
Even so he saved them because of the kind of person he is, and to show his power
9 Ọ baara Osimiri Uhie mba, ọ tachaa; o dufere ndị ya site nʼebe dị omimi gafee dịka ọ bụ ọzara.
He gave his order to the Red Sea, and it dried up. He led his people across the seabed as if it were a desert.
10 Ọ zọpụtara ha site nʼaka ndị kpọrọ ha asị; gbapụtakwa ha site nʼaka ndị iro ha.
He rescued them from those who hated them; he saved them from their enemies' power.
11 Mmiri ahụ riri ndị iro ha niile; ọ dịghị otu onye nʼime ha fọdụrụ.
The water drowned their enemies—none of them survived,
12 Mgbe ahụ, ha kweere okwu gị niile, ma bụkuo gị abụ otuto.
Then his people trusted in what he promised, and sang his praises.
13 Ma o teghị aka, ha chefuru ihe niile ọ rụrụ, ha e chereghị ka ndụmọdụ ya pụta ìhè.
But they quickly forgot what he had done for them, and they didn't listen to his advice.
14 Nʼọzara, ha sooro ọchịchọ nke obi ha; nʼala tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ha nwara Chineke ọnwụnwa.
They were filled with desperate cravings in the wilderness; they provoked God in the desert.
15 Nʼihi ya, o nyere ha ihe ha rịọrọ ya, ma zite ọrịa na-efe efe ka ọ dakwasị ha.
He gave them what they wanted, but sent them a plague as well.
16 Nʼetiti ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha, ha kworo ekworo megide Mosis na Erọn, ndị e doro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị.
In the camp the people became jealous of Moses, and of Aaron, the Lord's holy priest.
17 Ala meghere loda Datan, o likwara Abiram, na ndị otù ya.
The earth split open and swallowed up Dathan; it buried Abiram and his followers.
18 Ọkụ repịara ndị niile sonyere ha; ire ọkụ repịara ndị ajọ omume.
Fire broke out among them—a flame that burned them up.
19 Na Horeb, ha kpụrụ nwa ehi, kpọọ isiala nye arụsị e jiri igwe pịa.
At Mount Sinai they made a calf, they bowed down before a metal idol.
20 Ha jiri oyiyi oke ehi nke na-ata ahịhịa gbanwere Ebube ha.
They replaced their God of glory with a bull that eats grass!
21 Ha chefuru Chineke, onye zọpụtara ha, onye rụrụ ọtụtụ ọrụ dị ukwuu nʼIjipt,
They forgot God, their Savior, who had done marvelous things in Egypt;
22 ọtụtụ ihe ịrịbama nʼala Ham, na ọtụtụ ọrụ ịtụnanya nʼakụkụ Osimiri Uhie.
performing miracles in the land of Ham, doing amazing things at the Red Sea.
23 Nʼihi ya, o kwuru na ọ ga-ala ha nʼiyi, ma Mosis, onye ya ọ họpụtara, guzoro nʼetiti ndị ahụ na Chineke, ka oke iwe ya ghara ịla ha nʼiyi.
So he said he was going to destroy them But Moses, his chosen leader, placed himself between the Lord and the people to persuade the Lord not to destroy them in his anger.
24 Emesịa, ha ledara ala ọma ahụ anya, ha ekwenyeghị na nkwa ya.
Later the people refused to enter the Promised Land; they didn't trust him to do as he'd promised.
25 Ha tamuru ntamu nʼime ụlọ ikwu ha; ha erubekwaghị isi nye Onyenwe anyị.
They complained in their tents about the Lord, and refused to obey what he told them.
26 Nʼihi nke a, o weliri aka ya elu ṅụọrọ ha iyi na ọ ga-eme ka ha niile nwụọ nʼọzara,
So he raised his hand to give them a serious warning that he would bring them down in the wilderness,
27 mee ka agbụrụ ha daa nʼetiti mba dị iche iche, ma chụsasịa ha nʼala niile.
that he would disperse their descendants among the heathen nations, scattering them among countries far away.
28 Ha dịnyeere ndị na-efe arụsị Baal nke Peoa, riekwa ihe e ji chụọrọ chi na-enweghị ndụ aja;
They gave their allegiance to Baal Peor, and ate food sacrificed to the dead.
29 ha sitere nʼajọ omume ha kpasuo Onyenwe anyị iwe, nke mere ka ọrịa na-efe efe dakwasị ha.
They provoked the Lord by what they did, making him angry, so a plague broke out among them.
30 Ma Finehaz guzoro ọtọ, mee ihe ziri ezi, ọrịa ahụ na-efe efe kwụsịkwara.
But Phinehas took a stand for the Lord and intervened, and the plague was stopped in its tracks.
31 A gụnyere nke a dịka ezi omume nye ya site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
He has been considered as a man who lived right from that time on and for all generations.
32 Nʼakụkụ mmiri Meriba, ha kpasuru Onyenwe anyị iwe, nʼihi ha, nsogbu dakwasịrị Mosis;
They also angered him at the waters of Meribah where things went badly for Moses because of them.
33 nʼihi na ha nupuru isi megide Mmụọ nke Chineke, Mosis kwuru okwu, na-echeghị echiche banyere ihe ọ na-ekwu.
They upset him so much that he spoke without thinking in the heat of the moment.
34 Ha egbuchapụghị mba niile bi nʼala ahụ dịka Onyenwe anyị dọrọ ha aka na ntị ka ha mee.
They did not destroy the heathen peoples as the Lord had told them to do,
35 Kama ha gwakọtara onwe ha na mba niile nke ala ahụ, site otu a, mụta ime ka ha na-eme.
but instead they joined in with them and adopted their way of life.
36 Ha fere arụsị ha ofufe, nke ghọrọ ihe ịma nʼọnya nye ha.
They worshiped their pagan idols which became a trap for them.
37 Ha gara nʼihu were ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ndị inyom chụọrọ chi na-abụghị chi aja.
The even sacrificed their sons and daughters to these demons.
38 Ha na-awụfu ọbara ndị na-emeghị ihe ọbụla, ọbara ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ndị inyom, bụ ndị ha chụrụ dịka aja nye arụsị niile nke ala Kenan, si otu a jiri ọbara ha merụọ ala ahụ.
They shed the blood of innocent children, their sons and daughters, sacrificing them to the idols of Canaan. By doing so they defiled the land with blood.
39 Ha sitere nʼihe ha na-eme merụọ onwe ha; site nʼaka ọrụ ha, maka uru ha nyefere onwe ha nʼaka ndị na-emerụ ha.
The also defiled themselves by what they did: their actions were spiritual adultery.
40 Nʼihi nke a, iwe were Onyenwe anyị megide ndị ya; ọ gụkwara ihe nketa ya dịka ihe rụrụ arụ.
So the Lord was angry with his people—he loathed those who belonged to him.
41 Ọ raara ha nye nʼaka ndị mba ọzọ dị iche iche, ndị kpọrọ ha asị chịkwara ha.
He handed them over to the heathen nations. These people who hated them now became their rulers.
42 Ndị iro ha mekpara ha ahụ chie ha ọnụ nʼala nʼokpuru ike ha.
Their enemies dominated and subdued them with their power.
43 Ọtụtụ oge, ọ napụtara ha, ma ha nọgidesịrị ike nʼinupu isi site na ndụmọdụ ya, bụrụ ndị lara nʼiyi nʼime mmehie ha.
The Lord repeatedly rescued them, but they continued with their rebellious ideas, until they were finally destroyed by their own sins.
44 Ma mgbe ọ nụrụ mkpu akwa ha, ọnọdụ mkpagbu ha metụtara ya;
Despite all this, the Lord was moved by their suffering; he heard their sad cries.
45 nʼihi ha, o chetara ọgbụgba ndụ ya, sitekwa nʼoke ịhụnanya ya, meere ha ebere.
He remembered the agreement he had made with them, and he held back because of his great kindness and love.
46 Ọ na-emekwa ka ndị ahụ dọtara ha nʼagha nwee ọmịiko nʼahụ ha.
He made the people who captured them treat them with mercy.
47 O Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị, zọpụta anyị, chịkọta anyị site nʼaka mba dị iche iche, ka anyị nwee ike nye aha nsọ gị ekele ma nyaakwa isi nʼime otuto gị.
Save us, Lord, our God! Bring us back together from among the nations, so we can thank you and declare how magnificent and holy you are.
