< 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.
For the Leader; upon Shoshannim; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I say: 'My work is concerning 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.
Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured upon 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, thy glory and thy majesty.
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 majesty prosper, ride on, in behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness; and let thy right hand teach thee tremendous 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 — the peoples fall under thee — they sink into 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 given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity 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 fellows.
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, and 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 thy favourites; at 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, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also 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.”
So shall the king desire thy beauty; for he is thy lord; and do homage unto him.
12 Ada Taịa ga-eji onyinye bịa; ndị ọgaranya ga-achọkwa ka i gosi ha ihuọma.
And, O daughter of Tyre, the richest of the people shall entreat thy favour with a gift.'
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 the palace; her raiment is of chequer work inwrought 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 shall be led unto the king on richly woven stuff; the virgins her companions in her train being brought unto thee.
15 E ji ọṅụ na obi ụtọ dubata ha; ha bara nʼime ụlọeze.
They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; 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, whom thou shalt make princes in all the land.
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 in all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
