1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Nʼusoro olu abụ “Okoko osisi lili.” Abụ maskil ụmụ Kora. Abụ maka agbamakwụkwọ. Isi okwu dị ebube na-akpali mkpụrụobi m, mgbe m na-agụgharị abụ m nye eze; ire m bụ mkpisi akwụkwọ dị nʼaka ọka ode akwụkwọ.
To the chief music-maker; put to Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart is flowing over with good things; my words are of that which I have made for a king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 I bụ onye kachasị mma nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ, e ji amara tee egbugbere ọnụ gị mmanụ, ebe ọ bụ na Chineke agọziela gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
You are fairer than the children of men; grace is flowing through your lips; for this cause the blessing of God is with you for ever.
3 Kenye mma agha gị nʼukwu gị, gị onye dị ike; yikwasị onwe gị ebube na ịma mma dịka uwe.
Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power.
4 Nʼebube gị, gaa nʼihu nʼime mmeri, nʼihi eziokwu, na ịdị obi umeala, na ezi omume; ka aka nri gị gosipụta ọrụ gị niile nke na-eju anya.
And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear.
5 Ka àkụ gị niile dị nkọ mapuo mkpụrụobi ndị iro niile nke eze; ka mba niile na-adakwa nʼokpuru ụkwụ gị.
Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.
6 O Chineke, ocheeze gị ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, mkpara omume ziri ezi ka mkpara alaeze gị ga-abụ
Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.
7 Ị hụrụ ezi omume nʼanya, ma kpọọ ihe ọjọọ asị; ya mere, Chineke, onye bụ Chineke gị, emeela ka ịdị elu karịa ndị ibe gị, site na ite gị mmanụ nke ọṅụ.
You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings.
8 Uwe gị niile jupụtara nʼisisi ụtọ nke si na mmanụ máá na aloos na akashia; ha sitere nʼụlọeze niile, e ji ọdụ enyi chọọ mma. Egwu sitere nʼụbọ akwara na-eme ka i nwee obi ụtọ.
Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.
9 Ụmụ agbọghọ eze nọ nʼetiti ndị inyom gị ka a na-asọpụrụ; nwunye eze, onye yikwasịrị ọlaedo nke Ọfịa na-eguzo nʼaka nri gị.
Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Gee ntị, gị nwaagbọghọ, tulee ma nụrụkwa ihe m na-ekwu: “Chefuo ndị gị na ezinaụlọ nna gị.
O daughter, give thought and attention, and let your ear be open; no longer keep in mind your people, and your father's house;
11 Nʼihi na ịma mma gị ga-eme ka eze chọsie gị ike. Sọpụrụ ya nʼihi na ọ bụ onyenwe gị.”
So will the king have a great desire for you, seeing how beautiful you are; because he is your lord, give him honour.
12 Ada Taịa ga-eji onyinye bịa; ndị ọgaranya ga-achọkwa ka i gosi ha ihuọma.
And the daughters of Tyre will be there with an offering; those who have wealth among the people will be looking for your approval.
13 Adaeze, lee ka o si maa mma dị ukwuu nʼime ụlọ ya; ọ bụ akwa a kpanyere ọlaedo ka e ji dụọ uwe mwụda ya.
In the great house the king's daughter is all shining: her clothing is worked with gold.
14 Ụmụ agbọghọ ibe ya, ndị na-amaghị nwoke, na-eso ya bịakwute gị; ọ bụ uwe mwụda a kpanyere ihe ọkpụkpa ka o yi mgbe e dubatara ya nʼụlọeze.
She will come before the king in robes of needlework; the virgins in her train will come before you.
15 E ji ọṅụ na obi ụtọ dubata ha; ha bara nʼime ụlọeze.
With joy and rapture will they come; they will go into the king's house.
16 Ụmụ gị ndị ikom ga-anọchi anya nna nna gị; ị ga-eme ka ha bụrụ ndịisi nʼala ahụ niile.
Your children will take the place of your fathers; so that you may make them rulers over all the earth.
17 Aga m eme ka echeta ihe banyere gị ruo ọgbọ niile; nʼihi nke a, mba niile ga-eto gị ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi.
I will keep the memory of your name living through all generations; and because of this the people will give you praise for ever.
