O God hear prayer my give ear! to [the] words of mouth my.

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 - they have risen up on me and ruthless [people] they have sought life my not they have set God to before themselves (Selah)

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

Here! God [is] a helper of me [the] Lord [is] [those who] sustain life my.

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

(May he bring back *Q(K)*) the evil to enemies my in faithfulness your destroy them.

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

In voluntariness I will sacrifice to you I will give thanks to name your O Yahweh for [it is] good.

For from every trouble he has delivered me and on enemies my it has looked eye my.
