Abụ Ọma 28
1 Abụ Ọma Devid. Gị Onyenwe anyị ka m na-akpọku; gị bụ Oke nkume m, agbala m nkịtị. Ọ bụrụ na ị jụ ịza m, aga m eyi otu nʼime ndị ahụ na-arịda nʼolulu.
“Of David.” Unto thee, O Lord, will I call; O my rock, turn not unheeding from me: lest thou turn away silent from me, and I become like those that go down into the pit.
2 Nụrụ arịrịọ m maka ebere dịka m na-akpọku gị maka enyemaka, mgbe m chịlịri aka m abụọ elu nʼEbe gị Kachasị Nsọ.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the most holy place of thy sanctuary.
3 Adọkpụrụla m tinyere ndị ajọ mmadụ, tinyekwara ndị na-eme ajọ ihe, ndị ji ire ụtọ agwa ndị agbataobi ha okwu udo, ma ha bu iro nʼime obi ha.
Snatch me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of injustice, who speak peace with their neighbors, with mischief in their heart.
4 Kwụghachi ha dịka ọrụ ọjọọ ha na omume ha kwesiri; kwụghachi ha maka ihe aka ha mere, ka ihe ga-adakwasị ha bụrụ ihe ha kwesiri iketa.
Give unto them according to their doing, and according to the evil of their deeds; according to the work of their hands do thou give unto them: bestow their [just] recompense on them.
5 Nʼihi na ha adịghị aghọta ọrụ niile nke Onyenwe anyị, ha adịghịkwa aghọta ihe aka ya abụọ rụrụ, ọ ga-akwada ha nʼala, ọ gaghị ewulikwa ha elu ọzọ.
Because they have no regard for the doings of the Lord, nor the works of his hands: may he pull them down, and not build them up.
6 Toonu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na o gere ntị nʼarịrịọ m rịọrọ ya ka o meere m ebere.
Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7 Onyenwe anyị bụ ike m na ọta m; ana m atụkwasị ya obi m, si otu a bụrụ onye a na-enyere aka. Obi m na-awuli elu nʼihi ọṅụ, aga m ejikwa abụ m na-eto ya.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him hath my heart trusted, and I am helped, and my heart exulteth; and with my song will I thank him.
8 Onyenwe anyị bụ ike nke ndị ya, ebe mgbaba e wusiri ike nke nzọpụta dịịrị onye ya etere mmanụ.
The Lord is strength unto them, and he is the fortress of victory of his anointed.
9 Zọpụta ndị gị, gọzikwaa ihe nketa gị; buuru ha onye ọzụzụ atụrụ, na-ekukwa ha ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Help thy people, and bless thy heritage: and feed them, and exalt them unto all eternity.
