Abụ Ọma 52
1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ maskil Devid. Nke o bụrụ mgbe Doeg onye Edọm gara gwa Sọl sị, “Devid gara hụ Ahimelek nʼụlọ ya.” Gịnị mere i ji na-anya isi nʼihe ọjọọ, gị nwoke dị ike? Gịnị mere na ogologo ụbọchị niile, ị na-anya isi, gị onye Chineke na-eleda anya?
To the chief music-maker. Maschil. Of David. When Doeg the Edomite came to Saul saying, David has come to the house of Ahimelech. Why do you take pride in wrongdoing, lifting yourself up against the upright man all the day?
2 Ire gị na-atụ atụmatụ ịla nʼiyi; ọ dị ka agụba dị nkọ, gị onye na-ebi ndụ aghụghọ.
Purposing destruction, using deceit; your tongue is like a sharp blade.
3 Ị hụrụ ihe ọjọọ nʼanya karịa ihe ọma, ị hụrụ okwu ụgha nʼanya karịa eziokwu. (Sela)
You have more love for evil than for good, for deceit than for works of righteousness. (Selah)
4 O onye ire aghụghọ! Ị hụrụ okwu ọbụla nke na-emegide mmadụ nʼanya.
Destruction is in all your words, O false tongue.
5 Nʼezie, Chineke ga-akwatu gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Ọ ga-ejide gị, dọpụta gị site nʼụlọ ikwu gị, ọ ga-ehopukwa gị site nʼala ndị dị ndụ. (Sela)
But God will put an end to you for ever; driving you out from your tent, uprooting you from the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Ndị ezi omume ga-ahụ ya tụkwaa egwu; ha ga-achị ya ọchị na-asị,
The upright will see it with fear, and will say, laughing at you:
7 “Ugbu a, lee nwoke ahụ, onye jụrụ ime Chineke ebe mgbaba ya. Ọ tụkwasịrị obi ya na akụnụba ya nke dị ukwuu. O sitekwara na ibibi ndị ọzọ ghọọ onye dị ike!”
See, this is the man who did not make God his strength, but had faith in his goods and his property, and made himself strong in his wealth.
8 Ma adị m ka osisi oliv, nke na-eto na-awasa nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke. Ana m atụkwasị obi m nʼịhụnanya Chineke, nke na-adịgide ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi.
But I am like a branching olive-tree in the house of God; I have put my faith in his mercy for ever and ever.
9 Aga m eto gị ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi nʼihi ihe i mere; aga m eto gị nʼihu ndị gị dị nsọ. Olileanya m ga-adị nʼime aha gị, nʼihi na aha gị dị mma.
I will give you praise without end for what you have done; I will give honour to your name before your saints, for it is good.
