Abụ Ọma 33
1 Tienụ mkpu ọṅụ nye Onyenwe anyị, unu ndị ezi omume; nʼihi na ọ bụ ihe ziri ezi ka ndị obi ha ziri ezi too ya.
[A Psalm] of David. Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; praise becomes the upright.
2 Werenụ ụbọ akwara too Onyenwe anyị; werenụ une nke nwere akwara iri kpọọrọ ya egwu.
Praise the Lord on the harp; platy to him on a lute of ten strings.
3 Bụkuonụ ya abụ ọhụrụ; were ǹka kpọọ ụbọ akwara ma tiekwa mkpu ọṅụ.
Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
4 Nʼihi na okwu Onyenwe anyị niile ziri ezi bụrụkwa eziokwu; o kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼọrụ ya niile.
For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are faithful.
5 Onyenwe anyị na-ahụ ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi nʼanya; ụwa niile jupụtara nʼịhụnanya ya nke na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ.
He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full the mercy of the Lord.
6 Ọ bụ site nʼokwu ọnụ Onyenwe anyị ka e ji kee eluigwe niile, jirikwa nkuume nke ọnụ ya mee anwụ, na ọnwa na kpakpando niile.
By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the host of them by the breath of his [mouth].
7 Ọ bụ ya kekwara osimiri niile chịkọta ha nʼotu ebe, kpaa oke ebe ha ga-anọ dịka ụlọakụ dị ukwuu.
Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the deeps in treasuries.
8 Ka ụwa niile tụọ Onyenwe anyị egwu; ka mmadụ niile bi nʼụwa sọpụrụ ya.
Let all the earth fear the Lord; and let all that dwell in the world be moved because of him.
9 Nʼihi na o kwuru okwu, okwu ahụ mezukwara; o nyere iwu, iwu ahụ guzokwara chịm.
For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
10 Onyenwe anyị na-emebi atụmatụ mba niile; ọ na-emebi ebumnobi ụmụ mmadụ.
The Lord frustrates the counsels of the nations; he brings to nothing also the reasonings of the peoples, and brings to nothing the counsels of princes.
11 Atụmatụ Onyenwe anyị na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ebumnobi ya ruo ọgbọ niile.
But the counsel of the Lord endures for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
12 Mba a gọziri agọzi ka mba ahụ bụ, bụ ndị Chineke bụ Onyenwe anyị ha; bụ ndị ọ họpụtara ka ha bụrụ ihe nketa ya.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
13 Onyenwe anyị si nʼeluigwe na-ele ndị mmadụ bi nʼụwa anya. Ọ na-ahụzu ụmụ mmadụ niile anya.
The Lord looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
14 O sitere nʼebe obibi ya na-ele onye ọbụla bi nʼelu ụwa anya.
He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the earth;
15 Ebe ọ bụ ya kpụrụ obi mmadụ niile nʼotu na otu; ọ na-ahụzu, na-amazukwa ihe niile ha na-eme.
who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
16 Ọnụọgụgụ ndị agha eze apụghị ịzọpụta ya; o nweghị onye agha ọbụla na-azọpụta onwe ya, site nʼịdị ukwuu nke ike ya.
A king is not saved by reason of a great host; and a giant shall not be delivered by the greatness of his strength.
17 Ịnyịnya agha ezukwaghị iwetara ndị na-agba ha mmeri nʼagha. Ọ bụ ezie na ịnyịnya dị ike, ma ha apụghị ịzọpụta ndị nwe ha.
A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.
18 Ma Onyenwe anyị ji anya ya na-eche ndị niile na-atụ ya egwu nche, ya bụ ndị niile na-atụkwasị obi ha nʼịhụnanya ya, nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ.
Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him, those that hope in his mercy;
19 Ọ ga-anapụta ha site nʼaka ọnwụ. Ọ ga-echebekwa ha ọ bụladị nʼoge ụnwụ.
to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Anyị ji olileanya eche Onyenwe anyị; ọ bụ ya bụ inyeaka anyị na ọta anyị.
Our soul waits on the Lord; for he is our helper and defender.
21 Obi anyị na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼime ya; nʼihi na anyị tụkwasịrị aha nsọ ya obi.
For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy name.
22 O Onyenwe anyị, ka ịhụnanya gị na-adịgidere anyị, dịka olileanya anyị dị na gị.
Let your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we have hoped in you.
