Abụ Ọma 54

1 Abụ Ọma Devid. Abụ eji ụbọ akwara akpọ. Abụ maskil Devid. Mgbe ndị Zif gara sị Sọl, “Devid ọ dịghị ezo nʼetiti anyị?” O Chineke, jiri aha gị zọpụta m; jirikwa ike gị kpepụta m.

Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.

2 O Chineke, nụrụ ekpere m; gee ntị nʼokwu ọnụ m.

Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Ndị m na-amaghị na-ebuso m agha; ndị na-eme ihe ike na-achọ ịnapụ m ndụ m, ndị na-akpọghị Chineke ihe ọbụla. (Sela)

For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Nʼezie, Chineke bụ onye inyeaka m; onyenwe m bụ onye na-agba m ume.

Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.

5 Mee ka ihe ọjọọ lọghachikwute ndị na-ekwulu m; nʼime ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, laa ha nʼiyi.

He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.

6 Aga m eji onyinye afọ ofufu chụọrọ gị aja; O Onyenwe anyị, aga m eto aha gị, nʼihi na ọ dị mma.

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

7 Nʼihi na ọ gbapụtala m site na nsogbu m niile, ọ bụ anya mmeri ka m ji na-ele ndị iro m anya.

For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.
