Abụ Ọma 45
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 Musician. Upon Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. An instruction; — a song of the Beloved. My heart is welling forth [with] a good matter: I say what I have composed touching the 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.
Thou art fairer than the sons of men; grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
3 Kenye mma agha gị nʼukwu gị, gị onye dị ike; yikwasị onwe gị ebube na ịma mma dịka uwe.
Gird thy sword upon [thy] thigh, O mighty one, [in] thy majesty and thy splendour;
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 [in] thy splendour ride prosperously, because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
5 Ka àkụ gị niile dị nkọ mapuo mkpụrụobi ndị iro niile nke eze; ka mba niile na-adakwa nʼokpuru ụkwụ gị.
Thine arrows are sharp — peoples fall under thee — in the heart of the king's enemies.
6 O Chineke, ocheeze gị ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, mkpara omume ziri ezi ka mkpara alaeze gị ga-abụ
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom:
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.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
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.
Myrrh and aloes, cassia, are all thy garments; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee 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 thine honourable women; upon thy right hand doth stand 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.
Hearken, daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; and forget thine own people and thy father's house:
11 Nʼihi na ịma mma gị ga-eme ka eze chọsie gị ike. Sọpụrụ ya nʼihi na ọ bụ onyenwe gị.”
And the king will desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him.
12 Ada Taịa ga-eji onyinye bịa; ndị ọgaranya ga-achọkwa ka i gosi ha ihuọma.
And the daughter of Tyre with a gift, the rich ones among the people, shall court thy favour.
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.
All glorious is the king's daughter within; her clothing is of wrought 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 shall be brought unto the king in raiment of embroidery; the virgins behind her, her companions, shall be brought in unto thee:
15 E ji ọṅụ na obi ụtọ dubata ha; ha bara nʼime ụlọeze.
With joy and gladness shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace.
16 Ụmụ gị ndị ikom ga-anọchi anya nna nna gị; ị ga-eme ka ha bụrụ ndịisi nʼala ahụ niile.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons; princes shalt thou make them in 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 make thy name to be remembered throughout all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
