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.
Rejoice, O ye righteous, in the LORD! For praise becometh the upright.
2 Werenụ ụbọ akwara too Onyenwe anyị; werenụ une nke nwere akwara iri kpọọrọ ya egwu.
Praise the LORD with the harp; Sing to him with the ten-stringed psaltery!
3 Bụkuonụ ya abụ ọhụrụ; were ǹka kpọọ ụbọ akwara ma tiekwa mkpu ọṅụ.
Sing to him a new song; Play skilfully amid the sound of trumpets!
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 acts are faithful.
5 Onyenwe anyị na-ahụ ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi nʼanya; ụwa niile jupụtara nʼịhụnanya ya nke na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ.
He loveth justice and equity; The earth is full of the goodness 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 were the heavens made, And all the hosts 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.
He gathereth the waters of the sea, as a heap; He layeth up the deep in storehouses.
8 Ka ụwa niile tụọ Onyenwe anyị egwu; ka mmadụ niile bi nʼụwa sọpụrụ ya.
Let all the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
9 Nʼihi na o kwuru okwu, okwu ahụ mezukwara; o nyere iwu, iwu ahụ guzokwara chịm.
For he spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
10 Onyenwe anyị na-emebi atụmatụ mba niile; ọ na-emebi ebumnobi ụmụ mmadụ.
The LORD bringeth the devices of the nations to nothing; He frustrateth the designs of kingdoms.
11 Atụmatụ Onyenwe anyị na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ebumnobi ya ruo ọgbọ niile.
The purposes of the LORD stand for ever; The designs of his heart, to all generations.
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.
Happy the nation whose God is Jehovah; The people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13 Onyenwe anyị si nʼeluigwe na-ele ndị mmadụ bi nʼụwa anya. Ọ na-ahụzu ụmụ mmadụ niile anya.
The LORD looketh down from heaven; He beholdeth all the children of men;
14 O sitere nʼebe obibi ya na-ele onye ọbụla bi nʼelu ụwa anya.
From his dwelling-place he beholdeth all the inhabitants of the earth, —
15 Ebe ọ bụ ya kpụrụ obi mmadụ niile nʼotu na otu; ọ na-ahụzu, na-amazukwa ihe niile ha na-eme.
He that formed the hearts of all, And observeth 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 the number of his forces, Nor a hero 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.
The horse is a vain thing for safety, Nor can he deliver his master by his great strength.
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 eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, —Upon them that trust in his goodness;
19 Ọ ga-anapụta ha site nʼaka ọnwụ. Ọ ga-echebekwa ha ọ bụladị nʼoge ụnwụ.
To save them from the power of death, And keep them alive in famine.
20 Anyị ji olileanya eche Onyenwe anyị; ọ bụ ya bụ inyeaka anyị na ọta anyị.
The hope of our souls is in the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
21 Obi anyị na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼime ya; nʼihi na anyị tụkwasịrị aha nsọ ya obi.
Yea, in him doth our heart rejoice; In his holy name we have confidence.
22 O Onyenwe anyị, ka ịhụnanya gị na-adịgidere anyị, dịka olileanya anyị dị na gị.
May thy goodness be upon us, O LORD! According as we trust in thee!
