Abụ Ọma 24

1 Abụ Ọma Devid. Ụwa na ihe niile dị nʼime ya bụ nke Onyenwe anyị; ụwa na ndị niile bi nʼime ya.

“Of David a psalm.” Unto the Lord belongeth the earth with what filleth it, the world and they that dwell therein;

2 Ọ tọrọ ntọala ya nʼime oke osimiri niile, o mekwara ka o guzosie ike.

For upon seas hath he founded it, and upon rivers hath he established it.

3 Onye bụ onye ahụ nwere ike irigo nʼelu ugwu Onyenwe anyị? Onye nwere ike ịbata guzo nʼime ụlọnsọ ya?

Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord? and who shall be able to stand in his holy place?

4 Ọ bụ onye aka ya emeghị ihe ọjọọ, obi ya dịkwa ọcha, onye na-adịghị atụkwasị obi na chi arụsị, maọbụ ṅụọ iyi aghụghọ.

He that is of clean hands, and pure of heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto falsehood, and hath not sworn deceitfully:

5 Ha ga-anata ngọzị site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị, natakwa mkpepụta site nʼaka Chineke Onye nzọpụta ha.

He shall bear away blessing from the Lord, and [the reward of] righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Otu a ka ọ ga-adịrị ọgbọ ndị ya, bụ ndị na-achọ ihu gị, Chineke nke Jekọb. (Sela)

This is the generation of those that adore him, that seek thy presence, [the sons of] Jacob. (Selah)

7 Welitenụ isi unu, unu ọnụ ụzọ ama, meenụ ka isi unu bụrụ ihe e welitere, unu ọnụ ụzọ ama ochie, ka eze ebube nwee ike ịbata.

Raise your heads, O ye gates; and be raised wide, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!

8 Onye bụ eze ebube a? Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye bụ dimkpa na dike. Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye bụ dike nʼagha.

Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

9 Welitenụ isi unu, unu ọnụ ụzọ ama, buliekwanụ ha elu, unu ọnụ ụzọ ama ochie, ka Eze ebube nwee ike ịbatakwa.

Raise your heads, O ye gates; and raise [them] up, ye everlasting doors: and let the King of glory enter!

10 Onye bụ eze ebube a? Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ọ bụ ya bụ Eze ebube! (Sela)

Who is then this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
