Abụ Ọma 115
1 Ọ bụghị anyị ka ọ dịrị, o Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụghị anyị ka ọ dịrị, kama ọ bụ aha gị ka ebube na-adịrị, nʼihi ịhụnanya gị na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị.
Not to us, Lord, not to us, but to you all glory should be given, because of your trustworthy love and faithfulness.
2 Gịnị mere ọtụtụ mba niile nke ụwa ji na-ajụ sị, “Olee ebe Chineke ha nọ?”
Why should the heathen nations ask, “Where is your God?”
3 Chineke anyị bi nʼeluigwe. Ọ bụkwa ihe tọrọ ya ụtọ nʼobi ka ọ na-eme.
Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants.
4 Arụsị ha niile bụ ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ka e ji kpụọ ha, ha bụ ọrụ aka mmadụ.
Their idols are just things of silver and gold made by human hands.
5 Ha nwere ọnụ ma ha adịghị ekwu okwu, ha nwere anya abụọ ma ha adịghị ahụ ụzọ;
They have mouths, but can't speak. They have eyes, but can't see.
6 ha nwere ntị ma ha adịghị anụ ihe, ha nwekwara imi ma ha adịghị anụ isisi ọbụla;
They have ears, but can't hear. They have noses, but can't smell.
7 ha nwere aka, ma ha adịghị emetụ ihe ọbụla aka, ha nwere ụkwụ, ma ha adịghị eje ije; ha enweghị ike iji akpịrị ha mee mkpọtụ ọbụla.
They have hands, but can't feel. They have feet, but can't walk. No sound comes from their throats.
8 Ndị na-eme ha ga-adịkwa ka ha. Ndị na-atụkwasị ha obi ga-adịkwa ka ha.
Those who make idols become just like them, and so does everyone who trusts in them.
9 Ụmụ Izrel, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi ọ bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
Israel, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.
10 Ezinaụlọ Erọn, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi. Ọ bụ ya bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
Descendants of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.
11 Unu ndị na-atụ egwu ya, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi ọ bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
Those who honor the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.
12 Onyenwe anyị na-echeta anyị, ọ ga-agọzikwa anyị, ọ ga-agọzi ndị ya bụ Izrel, ọ ga-agọzi ezinaụlọ Erọn,
The Lord keeps us in mind and will be good to us. He will bless Israel, he will bless the descendants of Aaron.
13 ọ ga-agọzi ndị niile na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị, ma onye nta ma onye ukwu.
The Lord will bless all those who worship him, whoever they are.
14 Ka Onyenwe anyị mee ka unu mụbaa, unu na ụmụ unu.
May the Lord be good to you, you and your children.
15 Ka Onyenwe anyị onye kere eluigwe na elu ụwa gọzie unu.
May you be blessed by the Lord who made heaven and earth.
16 Eluigwe niile bụ nke Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụkwa ya nyere ụmụ mmadụ elu ụwa niile.
The heavens belong to the Lord, but he has given the earth to humankind.
17 Ọ bụghị ndị nwụrụ anwụ na-eto Onyenwe anyị, ndị na-arịda nʼebe ịnọ duu;
The dead do not praise the Lord, those who have gone down into the silence of the grave.
18 ọ bụ anyị ga-aja Onyenwe anyị mma, site ugbu a ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Toonu Onyenwe anyị.
But we the living will always praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!
