Abụ Ọma 131

1 Abụ nrigo, nke Devid. O Onyenwe anyị, nganga adịghị nʼobi m, ndụ mpako abụkwaghị ọchịchọ m; adịghị m etinye onwe m nʼokwu karịrị m maọbụ nʼihe ndị dị ukwuu karịa m.

“A song of the degrees by David.” O Lord, my heart was not haughty, nor were my eyes lofty: neither have I walked after matters too great, or those too wonderful for me.

2 Ma ana m edere duu, mkpụrụobi m nọkwa jụụ; dịka nwantakịrị a napụrụ ara, ya na nne ya nọ, e, dịka nwantakịrị a napụrụ ara, otu a ka mkpụrụobi m nọ nʼime m.

Surely I have pacified and stilled my soul, like the suckling on its mother's breast: like a suckling is in me my soul.

3 Ndị Izrel, ka olileanya unu dịrị na Onyenwe anyị ugbu a na mgbe niile ebighị ebi.

Let Israel wait for the Lord from this time forth and for ever more.
