Abụ Ọma 6

1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Nke e ji ụbọ akwara abụ. Nʼusoro Sheminit. Abụ Ọma Devid. O Onyenwe anyị, abarala m mba mgbe ị na-ewe iwe. Atala m ahụhụ nʼoge ọnụma gị.

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, upon the eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm by David. Yahweh, don’t rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.

2 Biko, meere m ebere Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na adịghị m ike. Gwọọ m, nʼihi na ọkpụkpụ m niile nọ nʼihe mgbu.

Have mercy on me, Yahweh, for I am faint. Yahweh, heal me, for my bones are troubled.

3 Mkpụrụobi m nọ nʼọnọdụ ihe mgbu. Ruo ole mgbe, O Onyenwe anyị, ka ị ga-anọgide na-agba m nkịtị?

My soul is also in great anguish. But you, Yahweh—how long?

4 Onyenwe anyị, biko, bịa zọpụta m; nʼihi ịhụnanya gị na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ, napụta m.

Return, Yahweh. Deliver my soul, and save me for your loving kindness’ sake.

5 Nʼetiti ndị nwụrụ anwụ ọ dịghị onye na-ekwupụta aha gị. O nwere onye na-eto gị site nʼala ili? (Sheol h7585)

For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks? (Sheol h7585)

6 Ike agwụla m nʼihi ịsụ ude. Abalị niile, ana m eji ịkwa akwa mee ka ihe ndina m jupụta na mmiri, ana m eji anya mmiri dee ihe ndina m.

I am weary with my groaning. Every night I flood my bed. I drench my couch with my tears.

7 Anya m adịghị ahụzikwa ụzọ nke ọma nʼihi ihe mwute; ọ kaala nka nʼihi mmeso ndị iro m.

My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.

8 Sitenụ nʼebe m nọ wezuga onwe unu, unu ndị na-eme ajọ ihe, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị anụla akwa m niile.

Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping.

9 Onyenwe anyị anụla akwa m; ọ nụla arịrịọ nke m na-arịọ ya ka o meere m ebere. Ọ nabatala ekpere m.

Yahweh has heard my supplication. Yahweh accepts my prayer.

10 Ka ndị iro m niile bụrụ ndị ihere ga-eme. Ha ga-ada mba, bụrụkwa ndị ga-eji ihere laghachi ebe ha si bịa.

May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
