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.
A psalm of David. For the music director. Lord, you are the one who keeps me safe; please don't let me ever be humiliated. Save me, because you always do what is right.
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.
Please listen to me, and be quick to rescue me. Be my rock of protection, my strong fortress of safety.
3 Ebe ị bụ oke nkume m na ebe mgbaba m e wusiri ike, nʼihi aha gị, duo m ma na-edukwa m.
You are my rock and my fortress. For the sake of your reputation, please lead me and guide me.
4 Napụta m site nʼọnya nke e zobere nʼihi m, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị gị bụ ebe mgbaba m siri ike.
Help me escape from the hidden net that they set to trap me, for you are the one who protects me.
5 Nʼaka gị ka m na-enyefe mmụọ m; gbapụta m, o Onyenwe anyị, Chineke, onye eziokwu.
I put myself in your hands. Save me, Lord, for you are a trustworthy God.
6 Akpọrọ m ha asị bụ ndị niile na-efe chi mba ọzọ ndị na-abaghị uru; ana m atụkwasị Onyenwe anyị obi m.
I hate those who devote themselves to pointless idols; I trust 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 celebrate, happy in your love that never fails, for you have seen the problems I face and have paid attention to my troubles.
8 I wereghị m nyefee nʼaka ndị iro m, kama i nyela m ohere ijegharị ebe ọbụla m chọrọ.
You haven't handed me over to my enemies; you have set me free.
9 O Onyenwe anyị, meere m amara nʼọnọdụ ihe mgbu m. Anya m abụọ na-acha uhie uhie nʼihi ịkwa akwa; ike adịghịkwa m.
Be kind to me Lord, for I am upset. I can hardly see from so much crying. I am completely wasting away.
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.
Grief is killing me; my life is cut short by sadness; I am falling apart because of my troubles; I am worn to the bone.
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 am ridiculed by my enemies, particularly by my neighbors. My friends dread meeting me; people who see me in the street run the other way.
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 if I were dead; I'm ignored like a broken pot.
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.
I hear many people whispering about me; terror surrounds me. They plot together against me, planning to kill me.
14 Ma ana m atụkwasị gị obi Onyenwe anyị. Ekwuola m ya sị, “Naanị gị bụ Chineke m.”
But I put my trust in you, Lord, saying, “You are 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 whole life is in your hands! Save me from those who hate me and persecute me!
16 Mee ka amara gị mụkwasị ohu gị dịka anyanwụ; zọpụta m nʼihi ịhụnanya gị na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ.
May you look kindly on me, your servant. Save me because of your trustworthy love.
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)
Lord, don't let me be disgraced, for I'm calling out to you. Instead let the wicked be disgraced, let them be silent in the grave. (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.
Shut the mouths of those who tell lies against good people—those who speak contemptuously in their pride and arrogance!
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 wonderful is the goodness you have reserved for those who honor you! In front of everyone you give this goodness to those who come to you for help.
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.
You shelter and protect them with your presence, far from their enemies who scheme against them. You keep them safe from attacks and accusations.
21 Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị nʼihi na o gosila m ịhụnanya ya dị ukwuu mgbe m nọ nʼobodo ndị iro gbara gburugburu.
Bless the Lord, for he has shown me his wonderful trustworthy love when my city was being attacked
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.
Terrified I cried out, “I am being destroyed right in front of you!” But you heard my cry when I called out for you to help me.
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 you who trust in him! The Lord takes care of those who trust him, but he pays back in full those who are arrogant.
24 Ya mere, dịrịnụ ike, ka obi siekwa unu ike, unu niile ndị olileanya ha dị nʼime Onyenwe anyị.
Be strong and be confident, all you who put your hope in the Lord.
