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?
Why boast you yourself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endures continually.
2 Ire gị na-atụ atụmatụ ịla nʼiyi; ọ dị ka agụba dị nkọ, gị onye na-ebi ndụ aghụghọ.
The tongue devises mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Ị hụrụ ihe ọjọọ nʼanya karịa ihe ọma, ị hụrụ okwu ụgha nʼanya karịa eziokwu. (Sela)
You love evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
4 O onye ire aghụghọ! Ị hụrụ okwu ọbụla nke na-emegide mmadụ nʼanya.
You love all devouring words, O you deceitful 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)
God shall likewise destroy you for ever, he shall take you away, and pluck you out of your dwelling place, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Ndị ezi omume ga-ahụ ya tụkwaa egwu; ha ga-achị ya ọchị na-asị,
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
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 that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
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 green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God 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 praise you for ever, because you have done it: and I will wait on your name; for it is good before your saints.
