< Abụ Ọma 132 >

1 Abụ nrigo. O Onyenwe anyị, cheta Devid, nʼihe niile bụ ndị ọ gbakụtara azụ.
A Song of Ascents. Remember, O Yahweh, unto David, all his humiliations!
2 Ọ ṅụrụ iyi nye Onyenwe anyị, kwee nkwa nye Onye dị ukwuu nke Jekọb:
What he Sware to Yahweh, —Vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3 “Agaghị m abanye nʼime ụlọ m maọbụ rigoo nʼihe ndina m,
Surely I will not enter the home of my own house, nor ascend my curtained couch;
4 agaghị m arahụ ụra, egbugbere anya m agaghị atụ oru ụra,
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor, to mine eye-lashes, slumber:
5 tutu ruo mgbe m chọtaara Onyenwe anyị ọnọdụ ebe obibi nye Onye dị ukwuu nke Jekọb.”
Until I find a place for Yahweh, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob.
6 Anyị nụrụ ihe banyere ya nʼEfrata, anyị chọtara ya nʼubi niile nke Jearim.
Lo! we heard of it at Ephrathah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
7 “Ka anyị gaa na-ebe obibi ya; ka anyị kpọọ isiala nʼebe ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ ya.
We would enter his habitations, we would bow down at his footstool.
8 ‘Bilie, Onyenwe anyị, bata nʼebe izuike gị, gị na igbe ọgbụgba ndụ nke ike gị.
Arise! O Yahweh, unto thy place of rest, Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
9 Ka ndị nchụaja gị yiri ezi omume gị dịka uwe; ka ndị gị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi bụọ abụ nʼihi ọṅụ.’”
Thy priests, let them be clothed with righteousness, Thy men of lovingkindness, let them shout for joy!
10 Nʼihi ohu gị, bụ Devid, agbakụtala onye gị e tere mmanụ azụ.
For the sake of David thy servant, do not turn away the face of thine Anointed One.
11 Onyenwe anyị ṅụrụ Devid iyi nʼeziokwu, bụ iyi nke ọ gaghị esi na ya laghachi azụ: “Otu nʼime ụmụ gị, ka m ga-eme ka ọ nọdụ nʼocheeze gị,
Yahweh hath sworn unto David, in faithfulness, will he not turn from it, —Of the fruit of thy body, will I seat on thy throne.
12 ọ bụrụ na ụmụ ndị ikom gị edebe ọgbụgba ndụ m na ụkpụrụ niile m kuziri ha, mgbe ahụ ụmụ ha ga-anọdụ ala nʼocheeze gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
If thy sons keep my covenant, and my testimony which I will teach them, even their sons, unto futurity, shall sit on thy throne.
13 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ahọrọla Zayọn, ọ bụ ọchịchọ obi ya ime ya ebe obibi ya;
For Yahweh hath chosen Zion, —He hath desired it as a dwelling for himself:
14 “Ebe a bụ ebe izuike m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ebe a ka ocheeze m ga-adịkwa, nʼihi na ọ bụ ihe m chọrọ.
This, is my place of rest unto futurity, Here, will I dwell, for I have desired it;
15 Aga m eji ọtụtụ nri dị iche iche gọzie ya; aga m eji nri mee ka afọ ju ndị ogbenye ya.
Her provision, will I abundantly bless, Her needy ones, will I satisfy with bread;
16 Aga m eji nzọpụta yinye ndị nchụaja ya niile dịka uwe, ndị nsọ ya ga-abụ abụ nʼihi ọṅụ.
And, her priests, will I clothe with salvation, and, her men of lovingkindness, shall, shout aloud, for joy;
17 “Nʼebe a ka m ga-eme ka mpi puputara Devid ma debekwa oriọna nʼihi onye m e tere mmanụ.
There, will I cause to bud a horn to David, I have prepared a lamp for mine Anointed One;
18 Aga m eyikwasị ndị iro ya ihere dịka uwe ma aga eji okpueze mara mma chọọ isi ya mma.”
His enemies, will I clothe with shame, but, upon himself, shall his crown be resplendent.
