< Abụ Ọma 36 >

1 Abụ Ọma dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ Ọma Devid, bụ ohu Onyenwe anyị. E nwere m ozi dị nʼime obi nke sitere nʼaka Chineke banyere ndụ mmehie nke ndị na-eme ajọ ihe: Ọ dịghị ịtụ egwu Chineke dị nʼanya ha.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David, the servant of the Lord.” To speak of the ungodliness of the wicked is in my heart. He hath no fear of God before his eyes.
2 Nʼihi ha na-agwarịta onwe ha okwu ire ụtọ nʼanya ha onwe ha, na o nweghị ụzọ a ga-esi nwe ike ịchọpụta mmehie ha maọbụ kpọọ ya asị.
For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, Till his iniquity is found out and hated.
3 Okwu ọnụ ha niile bụ ihe ọjọọ na aghụghọ; ha adịghị eji uche eme ihe maọbụ mee ihe dị mma.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit; He neglecteth to be wise and to do good.
4 Ọ bụladị mgbe ha nọ nʼelu ihe ndina ha, ha na-eche echiche ajọ ihe; ha enyefeela onwe ha nʼaka ndụ ajọ omume, ha adịghị ajụkwa ihe na-ezighị ezi.
He deviseth mischief upon his bed; He persevereth in an evil way; He abhorreth not sin.
5 O Onyenwe anyị, ịhụnanya gị na-eru mbara eluigwe, ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị na-erukwa igwe ojii nke eluigwe.
Thy goodness, O LORD! reacheth to the heavens, And thy faithfulness to the clouds;
6 Ezi omume gị dịka ugwu dị ukwuu, ikpe ikpe ziri ezi gị dịka omimi nke oke osimiri. O Onyenwe anyị, ị na-echebe ụmụ mmadụ na anụmanụ.
Thy righteousness is like the high mountains; Thy judgments are a great deep; Thou, O LORD! preservest man and beast!
7 Lee ka ịhụnanya gị nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ si dị oke ọnụahịa, O Chineke! Ụmụ mmadụ na-agbaba nʼokpuru ndo nke nku gị abụọ.
How precious is thy loving-kindness, O God! Yea, the sons of men seek refuge under the shadow of thy wings.
8 Ha na-eri oriri site nʼịba ụba nke ụlọakụ gị; Ị na-enyekwa ha mmiri site nʼiyi nke obi ụtọ gị.
They are satisfied with the abundance of thy house, And thou causest them to drink of the full stream of thy pleasures.
9 Nʼihi na mmiri na-enye ndụ dị na gị; ọ bụkwa nʼìhè gị ka anyị na-ahụ ìhè.
For with thee is the fountain of life; Through thy light we see light.
10 Mee ka ịhụnanya gị na-adịgidere ndị maara gị, ka ezi omume gị na-adịgidekwara ndị ziri ezi nʼobi.
O continue thy loving-kindness to them that know thee, And thy favor to the upright in heart!
11 Ekwela ka ndị mpako a zọọ m ụkwụ nʼisi, ekwekwala ka aka ndị ajọ omume nupu m nʼebe m guzo.
Let not the foot of the proud come upon me, Nor the hand of the wicked remove me!
12 Lee ka ndị na-eme ajọ ihe si daa nʼala, a kwatuola ha nʼala, ha apụghịkwa ibilite ọzọ.
Lo! already are the workers of iniquity fallen; They are cast down; they are unable to rise!
