Abụ Ọma 31
1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ Ọma Devid. Onyenwe anyị, nʼime gị, ka m gbabara izere ndụ; ekwela ka ihere mee m; site nʼezi omume gị gbapụta m.
For the end, a Psalm of David, [an utterance] of extreme fear. O Lord, I have hoped in thee; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness and rescue me.
2 Tọọ ntị gị nʼala nụrụ olu m, bịa ngwangwa gbapụta m; ghọọrọ m oke nkume nke ebe mgbaba, ebe mgbaba e wusiri ike maka nzọpụta m.
Incline thine ear to me; make haste to rescue me: be thou to me for a protecting God, and for a house of refuge to save me.
3 Ebe ị bụ oke nkume m na ebe mgbaba m e wusiri ike, nʼihi aha gị, duo m ma na-edukwa m.
For thou art my strength and my refuge; and thou shalt guide me for thy name's sake, and maintain me.
4 Napụta m site nʼọnya nke e zobere nʼihi m, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị gị bụ ebe mgbaba m siri ike.
Thou shalt bring me out of the snare which they have hidden for me; for thou, O Lord, art my defender.
5 Nʼaka gị ka m na-enyefe mmụọ m; gbapụta m, o Onyenwe anyị, Chineke, onye eziokwu.
Into thine hands I will commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.
6 Akpọrọ m ha asị bụ ndị niile na-efe chi mba ọzọ ndị na-abaghị uru; ana m atụkwasị Onyenwe anyị obi m.
Thou has hated them that idly persist in vanities: but I have hoped in the Lord.
7 Aga m enwe obi ụtọ ma ṅụrịkwaa ọṅụ nʼime ịhụnanya gị, nʼihi na ị hụrụ nsogbu m marakwa ihe mgbu nke mmụọ m.
I will exult and be glad in thy mercy: for thou hast looked upon mine affliction; thou hast saved my soul from distresses.
8 I wereghị m nyefee nʼaka ndị iro m, kama i nyela m ohere ijegharị ebe ọbụla m chọrọ.
And thou hast not shut me up into the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a wide place.
9 O Onyenwe anyị, meere m amara nʼọnọdụ ihe mgbu m. Anya m abụọ na-acha uhie uhie nʼihi ịkwa akwa; ike adịghịkwa m.
Pity me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with indignation, my soul and by belly.
10 Iru ụjụ eriela m ahụ; ịkwa akwa m ewepụla ihe nʼafọ m; ihe mgbu m mere ka ike gwụsịa m ruo na ume adịghịkwa nʼọkpụkpụ m.
For my life is spent with grief, and my years with groanings: my strength has been weakened through poverty, and my bones are troubled.
11 Nʼihi ndị iro m niile; ndị agbataobi m na-elelị m anya. Ndị enyi m na-atụ ụjọ ịbịakwute m, ndị hụrụ m nʼokporoụzọ na-esite ụzọ ọzọ gafee.
I became a reproach among all mine enemies, but exceedingly so to my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that saw me without fled from me.
12 Aghọọla m onye e chefuru echefu, dị ka a ga-asị na m nwụrụ anwụ. A pụrụ iji ite kụwara akwụwa tụnyere m.
I have been forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am become as a broken vessel.
13 Anụla m nkwulu ha megide m; oke egwu dị nʼakụkụ niile; ha na-agba izu megide m, na-agba izu nzuzo iji napụ m ndụ m.
For I heard the slander of many that dwelt round about: when they were gathered together against me, they took counsel to take my life.
14 Ma ana m atụkwasị gị obi Onyenwe anyị. Ekwuola m ya sị, “Naanị gị bụ Chineke m.”
But I hoped in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.
15 Oge m niile dị gị nʼaka. Napụta m nʼaka ndị iro m na nʼaka ndị ahụ na-adịghị ezu ike ịchụ m ọsọ.
My lots are in thy hands: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies,
16 Mee ka amara gị mụkwasị ohu gị dịka anyanwụ; zọpụta m nʼihi ịhụnanya gị na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ.
and from them that persecute me. Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me in thy mercy.
17 O Onyenwe anyị, ekwela ka ihere mee m, nʼihi na akpọkuola m gị; kama mee ka ihere mee ndị na-eme ihe ọjọọ, ka ha tọgbọrọ nʼala mmụọ debe ọnụ ha duu. (Sheol h7585)
O Lord, let me not be ashamed, for I have called upon thee: let the ungodly be ashamed, and brought down to Hades. (Sheol h7585)
18 Ka ọnụ ahụ ha ji ekwu okwu ụgha mechie kpamkpam; nʼihi na ọ bụ site na mpako na nlelị ka ha ji na-ekwu okwu megide ndị ezi omume.
Let the deceitful lips become dumb, which speak iniquity against the righteous with pride and scorn.
19 Lee ka ịdị mma gị si baa ụba, nke i na-edebere ndị niile na-atụ egwu gị, nke ị na-enye ndị na-agbaba nʼime gị, nʼihu ọha mmadụ.
How abundant is the multitude of thy goodness, O Lord, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee! thou hast wrought [it] out for them that hope on thee, in the presence of the sons of men.
20 I na-ezobe ha nʼebe nzuzo gị pụọ nʼizu nzuzo nke ụmụ mmadụ; ị na-echebe ha nʼime ebe obibi gị; ka ha pụọ nʼebubo nke ire dị iche iche.
Thou wilt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the vexation of man: thou wilt screen them in a tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.
21 Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị nʼihi na o gosila m ịhụnanya ya dị ukwuu mgbe m nọ nʼobodo ndị iro gbara gburugburu.
Blessed be the Lord: for he has magnified his mercy in a fortified city.
22 Akụjara m, kwuo okwu nʼụjọ sị, “Ewezugala m site nʼihu ya!” Ma ị nụrụ arịrịọ m maka ebere mgbe m kpọkuru gị ka i nyere m aka.
But I said in my extreme fear, I am cast out from the sight of thine eyes: therefore thou didst hearken, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication when I cried to thee.
23 Hụnụ Onyenwe anyị nʼanya, unu ndị ya niile kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-anapụta ndị niile kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nye ya, ma ọ na-akwụghachi ndị mpako oke zuru ezu.
Love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord seeks for truth, and renders [a reward] to them that deal very proudly.
24 Ya mere, dịrịnụ ike, ka obi siekwa unu ike, unu niile ndị olileanya ha dị nʼime Onyenwe anyị.
Be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.
