Abụ Ọma 116
1 Ahụrụ m Onyenwe anyị nʼanya, nʼihi na ọ nụrụ olu m; ọ nụrụ mkpu akwa m maka ebere.
I love that the LORD should hear my voice and my supplications.
2 Nʼihi na o gere m ntị, aga m akpọku ya oge ndụ m niile.
Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him all my days.
3 Agbụ nke ọnwụ kekọrọ m, oke ihe mgbu nke ili bịakwasịrị m; nsogbu na iru ụjụ dakwasịrị m. (Sheol h7585)
The cords of death compassed me, and the straits of the nether-world got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Mgbe ahụ, akpọkuru m aha Onyenwe anyị: “O Onyenwe anyị, zọpụta m!”
But I called upon the name of the LORD: 'I beseech thee, O LORD, deliver my soul.'
5 Onyenwe anyị bụ onye na-eme ebere na onye ezi omume. Chineke anyị jupụtakwara nʼọmịiko.
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is compassionate.
6 Onyenwe anyị na-echebe ndị na-enweghị uche; mgbe m nọ nʼọnọdụ mkpa, ọ zọpụtara m.
The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Laghachi azụ zuru ike, gị mkpụrụobi m, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị emesola gị mmeso ọma.
Return, O my soul, unto Thy rest; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
8 Nʼihi na gị, o Onyenwe anyị, napụtara mkpụrụobi m site nʼọnwụ, anya m site na anya mmiri akwa, napụtakwa ụkwụ m site nʼịsọ ngọngọ,
For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling.
9 ka m nwee ike jegharịa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼime ala ebe ndị dị ndụ bi.
I shall walk before the LORD in the lands of the living.
10 Ekwenyere m na Onyenwe anyị mgbe m kwuru sị, “Abụ m onye nọ nʼoke nsogbu,”
I trusted even when I spoke: 'I am greatly afflicted.'
11 nʼime ịda mba m, ekwuru m sị, “Mmadụ niile bụ ndị ụgha.”
I said in my haste: 'All men are liars.'
12 Gịnị ka m ga-enyeghachi Onyenwe anyị nʼihi mmeso ọma niile o mesoro m?
How can I repay unto the LORD all His bountiful dealings toward me?
13 Aga m eweli iko nke nzọpụta m elu kpọkuokwa aha Onyenwe anyị.
I will lift up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
14 Nʼihu ndị ya niile ka m ga-anọ mezuo nkwa m kwere Onyenwe anyị.
My vows will I pay unto the LORD, yea, in the presence of all His people.
15 Ọnwụ nke ndị nsọ ya dị oke ọnụahịa nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.
Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.
16 O Onyenwe anyị, nʼezie, abụ m ohu gị; abụ m ohu gị, nwa nwoke nke ohu gị nwanyị; ị zọpụtala m site na agbụ e kere m.
I beseech Thee, O LORD, for I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bands.
17 Aga m achụrụ gị aja ekele kpọkuokwa aha Onyenwe anyị.
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
18 Ọ bụkwa nʼihu ndị ya niile ka m ga-anọ kwụghachi Onyenwe anyị nkwa m kwere,
I will pay my vows unto the LORD, yea, in the presence of all His people;
19 nʼime ogige ụlọ Onyenwe anyị, nʼetiti gị, O Jerusalem. Toonu Onyenwe anyị.
In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
