Abụ Ọma 4
1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ Ọma Devid nke a na-eji ụbọ akwara akpọ. Zaa m mgbe m na-akpọku gị Chineke m, gị onye ezi omume; Napụta m site nʼihe mgbu m, meere m ebere, nụrụkwa ekpere m.
For the leader, with stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer my cry, God, my defender. Often from straits you have brought me to spacious places. So now show me your favor and hear my prayer.
2 Unu ụmụ mmadụ, ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-atụgharịa ebube m, mee ka ọ bụrụ ihe ihere? Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-ahụ ihe efu nʼanya na-achọ chi ndị ahụ na-abụghị chi nʼezie? (Sela)
How long, you proud people, will my honor be stained by the slanders you love, and the lies that you follow? (Selah)
3 Matanụ nke ọma na Onyenwe anyị ahọpụtala ndị ezi omume nye onwe ya; ọ ga-egekwa ntị nʼolu m mgbe ọbụla m kpọkuru ya.
See! The Lord has shown me his wonderful kindness: the Lord hears, when I call to him.
4 Maanụ jijiji, unu emehiekwala; mgbe unu nọ nʼelu ihe ndina unu; nọọnụ jụụ na-enyocha obi unu. (Sela)
Sin not in your anger: but speak in your heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi unu, chụkwaranụ ya aja ezi omume.
Offer true sacrifice, trust in the Lord.
6 Ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ na-ajụ, “Onye pụrụ imere anyị ihe ọma?” Ma Onyenwe anyị, biko mee ka ìhè nke ihu gị mụkwasị anyị.
Many are longing for fortune to smile. Lift upon us the light of your face.
7 Were ọṅụ mejupụta obi m karịa mgbe mkpụrụ ubi, ya na mmanya ọhụrụ ha bara ụba nke ukwuu.
You have put in my heart, Lord, a deeper joy than was theirs who had corn and wine in abundance.
8 Aga m edina ala ma rahụ ụra nʼudo, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị gị Onyenwe anyị, na-eme ka m nọrọ na-enweghị ihe egwu ọbụla.
So in peace I will lie down and sleep; for you, Lord, keep me safe.
