Abụ Ọma 22
1 Abụ Ọma dịrị onyeisi abụ. Nʼusoro olu abụ nke “Nne ele nke ụtụtụ.” Abụ Ọma Devid. Chineke m, Chineke m, gịnị mere i jiri hapụ m? Gịnị mere i ji nọ ebe dị anya ịzọpụta m, nʼebe dị anya site nʼịsụ ude m niile?
For the Chief Musician; set to “The Doe of the Morning.” A Psalm by David. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?
2 O Chineke m, ana m akpọku gị nʼehihie, ma ị dịghị aza m, nʼabalị kwa, ma ọ dịghị izuike m nwere.
My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent.
3 Nʼezie, i nọ nʼocheeze gị dịka Onye ahụ dị Nsọ; ị bụ otuto ndị Izrel.
But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.
4 Nna anyị ha tụkwasịrị gị obi; ha tụkwasịrị gị obi, ị zọpụtakwara ha.
Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.
5 Ha kpọkuru gị si otu a bụrụ ndị a zọpụtara; ihere emeghị ha nʼihi na ha tụkwasịrị gị obi.
They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you, and were not disappointed.
6 Abụ m idide, abụghị m mmadụ; onye ndị ọzọ na-akwa emo, onye ndị mmadụ na-eleda anya.
But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised by the people.
7 Ndị niile hụrụ m na-achị m ọchị; na-emiri m ọnụ ịkwa emo, na-efufekwa isi ha na-asị.
All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying,
8 “O na-atụkwasị Onyenwe anyị obi; ka Onyenwe anyị bịa gbapụta ya. Ya napụta ya ebe ọ bụ na ihe ya masịrị ya.”
“He trusts in the LORD. Let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him.”
9 Ma Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ gị wepụtara m site nʼafọ nne m. Ọ bụ gị mere ka m tụkwasị gị obi, ọ bụladị mgbe m ka na-aṅụ ara.
But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust while at my mother’s breasts.
10 Site nʼoge amụrụ m ka e nyefere m nʼaka gị. Site nʼafọ nne m, ka gị onwe gị bụ Chineke m.
I was thrown on you from my mother’s womb. You are my God since my mother bore me.
11 Anọla m ebe dị anya, nʼihi na nsogbu dị nso. Ọ dịkwaghị onye inyeaka nọ nso.
Don’t be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is no one to help.
12 Ọtụtụ oke ehi gbara m gburugburu; oke ehi dị ike nke Bashan gbara m gburugburu.
Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.
13 Ọdụm ndị na-agbọ ụja mgbe ha na-adọgbu anụ ọhịa asaghepụla ọnụ ha megide m.
They open their mouths wide against me, lions tearing prey and roaring.
14 A wụpụla m dịka mmiri, ọkpụkpụ m niile apụkwaala nʼọnọdụ ha. Obi m agbazela dịka mmanụ, obi ịlọ mmiri ewerela ọnọdụ nʼime m.
I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melted within me.
15 Ike ọbụla adịghịkwa m nʼahụ, dịka a ga-asị na m bụ ụrọ nke anwụ mịkọọrọ mmiri dị ya nʼime. Ire m na-araparakwa m nʼọnụ, nʼihi na ị tọgbọrọ m nʼọnụ ọnwụ.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You have brought me into the dust of death.
16 Ọtụtụ nkịta agbaala m gburugburu; otù ndị na-eme ihe ọjọọ agbaala m gburugburu, ha adupuola m aka m na ụkwụ m.
For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.
17 A pụrụ ịgụta ọkpụkpụ m niile ọnụ; ndị mmadụ na-ele m anya na-emikwa ọnụ ọchị
I can count all of my bones. They look and stare at me.
18 Ha na-eke uwe m nʼetiti ha, ha sitere nʼife nza kee uwe m.
They divide my garments amongst them. They cast lots for my clothing.
19 Ma gị, Onyenwe anyị, anọla m ebe dị anya; gị Onye bụ ike m, mee ngwangwa bịa nyere m aka.
But don’t be far off, LORD. You are my help. Hurry to help me!
20 Napụta ndụ m site na mma agha, site nʼike ụmụ nkịta, napụta ndụ m nke dị oke ọnụahịa.
Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of the dog.
21 Gbapụta m site nʼọnụ ọdụm ndị a, zọpụta m site na mpi atụ ndị a.
Save me from the lion’s mouth! Yes, you have rescued me from the horns of the wild oxen.
22 Aga m ekwupụta aha gị nye ụmụnna m; nʼetiti ọha mmadụ aga m enye gị otuto.
I will declare your name to my brothers. Amongst the assembly, I will praise you.
23 Toonu Onyenwe anyị! Unu niile bụ ndị na-atụ egwu ya; unu bụ ndị agbụrụ Jekọb, sọpụrụnụ ya! Tụọnụ ya egwu, unu agbụrụ Izrel!
You who fear the LORD, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!
24 Nʼihi na o ledaghị ahụhụ onye a na-akpagbu anya maọbụ kwaa ya emo; o lefughị ya anya kama mgbe ọ kpọkuru ya, ọ nụrụ olu akwa ya.
For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.
25 Isiokwu otuto m nʼetiti ọha mmadụ sitere na gị; aga m emezukwa nkwa niile m kwere gị nʼihu ndị ahụ na-atụ egwu gị.
My praise of you comes in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.
26 Ndị ogbenye ga-eri nri, rijuo afọ ha, ndị niile na-achọ Onyenwe anyị ga-eto ya ka mkpụrụobi unu dị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise the LORD who seek after him. Let your hearts live forever.
27 Nsọtụ elu ụwa niile ga-echeta, ma laghachikwute Onyenwe anyị. Ezinaụlọ nke mba niile dị iche iche ga-akpọ isiala nʼihu ya.
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you.
28 Nʼihi na ike ọchịchị bụ nke Onyenwe anyị, ọ na-achịkwa mba niile.
For the kingdom is the LORD’s. He is the ruler over the nations.
29 Ndị ọgaranya niile nke elu ụwa ga-eri oriri ma fee ya; ihe niile na-anwụ anwụ ga-akpọ isiala nʼihu ya; ndị na-apụghị idebe onwe ha ndụ.
All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive.
30 Agbụrụ anyị ga-ejere ya ozi; a ga-akọrọ ọgbọ ndị na-abịa nʼihu ihe banyere onyenwe anyị.
Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord.
31 Ha ga-ekwusa ezi omume ya nye ọgbọ niile na-abịa nʼihu, bụ ndị a na-amụbeghị nʼihi na o meela ya.
They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it.
