Abụ Ọma 26

1 Abụ Ọma Devid. Onyenwe anyị, biko kpepụta m, nʼihi na ebiela m ndụ zuruoke; atụkwasịrị m Onyenwe anyị obi, na-eleghị anya nʼazụ.

David’s. Do me justice, O Yahweh, For, I, in my blamelessness, have walked, and, in Yahweh, have I trusted, I will not waver.

2 Tulee m, O Onyenwe anyị, ma nwakwaa m, nyochaa obi m na echiche m.

Try me, O Yahweh, and prove me, Test my reins and my heart: —

3 Nʼihi na ejirila m ịhụnanya gị mere ihe nlere anya nye onwe m. Ana m ejegharịkwa nʼime eziokwu gị.

For, thy lovingkindness, hath been before mine eyes, and I have walked to and fro in thy faithfulness;

4 Mụ na ndị na-aghọ aghụghọ adịghị enwe mmekọ ọbụla. Otu a kwa, nnwekọ ọbụla adịghịkwa nʼetiti mụ na ndị ihu abụọ.

I have not sat with men of deceit, nor, with dissemblers, would I enter;

5 Akpọrọ m otu ndị na-emebi iwu asị. Mụ na ndị ajọ omume agaghị anọkọkwa.

I have hated the convocation of evil-doers, and, with lawless men, would I not sit;

6 Ana m asacha aka m abụọ nʼọnọdụ emeghị ihe ọjọọ, na-eje ozi nʼebe ịchụ aja gị ife gị ofufe, o Onyenwe anyị.

I will bathe, in pureness, my hands, —so will I go in procession around thine altar, O Yahweh;

7 Ana m abụkwa abụ ekele, jiri iti mkpu na-ekwusa otuto gị, na ọrụ ebube gị niile.

To sound aloud a song, and to recount all thy wonderful doings.

8 O Onyenwe anyị, ahụrụ m ụlọ obibi gị nʼanya, ụlọ ahụ ebe ebube gị na-adịgide nʼime ya.

O Yahweh, I have loved the asylum of thy house, even the place of the habitation of thy glory!

9 Ebibikọtala mụ na ndị mmehie, ewezugakọtala ndụ m na nke ndị na-awụfu ọbara,

Do not remove, with sinners, my soul, nor, with men of bloodshed, my life;

10 ndị aka ha jupụtara nʼatụmatụ ọjọọ, aka nri ha jupụtakwara na ngarị.

In whose hands is a plot, and, their right hand, is filled with a bribe.

11 Ma mụ onwe m na-ebi ndụ zuruoke; gbapụta m ma meere m ebere.

But, I, in my blamelessness, will walk, Redeem me and show me favour.

12 Ụkwụ m na-eguzo nʼala dị larịị; aga m eto Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ọha mmadụ.

My foot standeth in a level place, In the convocations, will I bless Yahweh.
