Abụ Ọma 69
1 Abụ Ọma dịrị onyeisi abụ. Eji olu abụ “Okoko Lili.” Abụ Devid. O Chineke, zọpụta m, nʼihi na mmiri abịaruola m nʼolu.
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “LILIES.” BY DAVID. Save me, O God, for waters have come to the soul.
2 Ana m emikpu nʼụrụrọ ebe dị omimi, e nwekwaghị ebe ịzọkwasị ụkwụ dị. Abịala m nʼebe mmiri dị omimi; uju mmiri na-achọkwa ikpuchigide m.
I have sunk in deep mire, And there is no standing, I have come into the depths of the waters, And a flood has overflown me.
3 Akpịrị akpọọla m nkụ; ike agwụla m ebe m na-akpọ oku maka enyemaka. Anya m agbaala ọchịchịrị ebe m na-ele anya Chineke.
I have been wearied with my calling, My throat has been burned, My eyes have been consumed, waiting for my God.
4 Ndị kpọrọ m asị nʼefu dị ukwuu karịa agịrị isi dị m nʼisi. Ndị na-achọ ịla ndụ m nʼiyi dị ukwuu, bụ ndị họọrọ ịbụ ndị iro m, mgbe ọ na-adịghị ihe ọbụla m mere ha. Ha nọgidesịrị m ike mee ka m nyeghachi ihe m na-ezughị nʼohi.
Those hating me without cause Have been more than the hairs of my head, Mighty have been my destroyers, My lying enemies, That which I did not take away—I bring back.
5 Gị, Chineke, ị maara enweghị uche m niile; ikpe ọmụma m abụghị ihe zoro ezo nʼihu gị.
O God, You have known Concerning my overturn, And my desolations have not been hid from You.
6 Ekwela ka ihere mee ndị na-atụkwasị gị obi nʼihi m, O Onyenwe m, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile; ka ndị na-achọ gị ghara ịbụ ndị a ga-eme ihe ihere nʼihi m, O Chineke nke Izrel.
Do not let those waiting on You be ashamed because of me, O Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Do not let those seeking You Blush because of me, O God of Israel.
7 Ọ bụ nʼihi gị ka m na-anagide ịkwa emo, ihere ekpuchiela m ihu.
For because of You I have borne reproach, Shame has covered my face.
8 Abụ m ọbịa nʼebe ụmụnna m nọ, nʼebe ụmụnne nọ, abụ m onye mba ọzọ.
I have been a stranger to my brother, And a foreigner to sons of my mother.
9 Nʼihi na ihe gbasara ụlọ gị na-anụ m ọkụ nʼobi, ịta ụta niile nke ndị na-akparị gị adakwasịla m.
For [my] zeal for Your house has consumed me, And the reproaches of Your reproachers Have fallen on me.
10 Mgbe m na-ebe akwa na-ebukwa ọnụ, ha kparịrị m nʼihi na m na-eme nke a.
And I weep in the fasting of my soul, And it is for a reproach to me.
11 Mgbe m yikwasịrị uwe iru ụjụ m, a ghọrọ m ihe ha ji eme ihe ọchị.
And I make my clothing sackcloth, And I am for an allegory to them.
12 Ndị na-anọ ọnọdụ ala nʼọnụ ụzọ ama, na-akwa m emo, na-akọ m ọnụ, abụ m isi abụ nke ndị na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke na-abụ.
Those sitting at the gate meditate concerning me, And those drinking strong drink, Play on instruments.
13 O Onyenwe anyị, ana m akpọku gị nʼekpere, nʼoge ihuọma gị; na oke ịhụnanya gị, O Chineke m, zaa m nʼeziokwu nke nzọpụta gị.
And my prayer [is] to You, O YHWH, A time of good pleasure, O God, In the abundance of Your kindness, Answer me in the truth of Your salvation.
14 Dọpụta m site nʼụrụrọ, ekwela ka m mikpuo; zọpụta m site nʼaka ndị kpọrọ m asị, site na mmiri miri emi.
Deliver me from the mire, and do not let me sink, Let me be delivered from those hating me, And from deep places of waters.
15 Ekwela ka uju mmiri kpuchie m, maọbụ ka ebe dị omimi loda m, ma ọ bụkwanụ ka olulu lomie m, kpuchie m nʼime ọnụ ya.
Do not let a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut her mouth on me.
16 O Onyenwe anyị, zaa m, site nʼịdị mma nke ịhụnanya gị, nʼime ịdị ukwuu nke oke ebere gị, chee m ihu.
Answer me, O YHWH, for Your kindness [is] good, Turn to me according to the abundance of Your mercies,
17 Ezonarịla mụ bụ ohu gị ihu gị. Anọ m na nsogbu, mee ngwangwa zaa m!
And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in distress—hurry, answer me.
18 Bịa m nso zọpụta m. Gbapụta m site nʼaka ndị iro m.
Be near to my soul—redeem it, Ransom me because of my enemies.
19 Ị maara ihe niile banyere ihe ọchị ha ji m mee, mweda nʼala m na ihe ihere: ndị iro m niile nọkwa gị nʼihu.
You have known my reproach, And my shame, and my blushing, All my adversaries [are] before You.
20 Ọchị ha na-achị m etiwaala m obi, ma hapụ m nʼọnọdụ enweghị inyeaka. Elere m anya onye ga-emere m ebere, ma ọ dịghị onye ọbụla m hụrụ; lee anya ndị ga-akasị m obi, ma ọ dịkwaghị onye m chọtara.
Reproach has broken my heart, and I am sick, And I look for a bemoaner, and there is none, And for comforters, and I have found none.
21 Ha tinyere oluilu nʼime nri m, nyekwa m mmanya gbara ụka ka m ṅụọ.
And they give gall for my food, And cause me to drink vinegar for my thirst.
22 Ka tebul e debere nʼihu ha ghọrọ ha ọnya; ka ọ bụrụ ha ihe ịbọ ọbọ mgbe ha nọ nʼudo ya ghọrọ ha ọnya igbudu.
Their table before them is for a snare, And for a repayment—for a trap.
23 Ka anya ha gbaa ọchịchịrị, ka ha gharakwa ịhụ ụzọ ọzọ, mekwa ka ụkwụ ha na-ama jijiji mgbe niile.
Their eyes are darkened from seeing, And their loins continually shake You.
24 Wụkwasị ha oke iwe gị, ka iwe gị dị ọkụ zute ha.
Pour Your indignation on them, And the fierceness of Your anger seizes them.
25 Ka ebe obibi ha tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ka mmadụ ọbụla gharakwa ibi nʼime ụlọ ikwu ha.
Their tower is desolated, There is no dweller in their tents.
26 Ha na-akpagbu ndị ahụ i merụrụ ahụ, na-ekwukwa banyere ihe mgbu ndị ahụ i kwohịara ahụ.
For they have pursued him [whom] You have struck, And recount of the pain of Your pierced ones.
27 Boo ha ebubo ajọ omume tụkwasị nʼelu ajọ omume, ekwekwala ka ha keta oke na ezi omume gị.
Give punishment for their iniquity, And they do not enter into Your righteousness.
28 Mee ka e hichapụ aha ha site nʼakwụkwọ nke ndụ, ka a hapụ idekọta aha ha na nke ndị ezi omume.
They are blotted out of the scroll of life, And are not written with the righteous.
29 Anọ m nʼụfụ na ihe mgbu, O Chineke, mee ka nzọpụta gị kpuchie m.
And I [am] afflicted and pained, Your salvation, O God, sets me on high.
30 Aga m eji ịbụ abụ too aha Chineke, jirikwa ekele bulie ya elu.
I praise the Name of God with a song, And I magnify Him with thanksgiving,
31 Nke a ga-atọ Onyenwe anyị ụtọ karịa oke ehi, karịa oke ehi, nke mpi ya na ụkwụ ya ka dị.
And it is better to YHWH than an ox, A bullock—horned [and] hoofed.
32 Ndị ogbenye ga-ahụ ya ma ṅụrịakwa ọṅụ; unu ndị na-achọ Chineke, ka obi unu na-adị ndụ.
The humble have seen—they rejoice, You who seek God—and your heart lives.
33 Onyenwe anyị na-anụ ekpere ndị nọ na mkpa, ọ naghị eledakwa ndị ya a dọtara nʼagha anya.
For YHWH listens to the needy, And He has not despised His bound ones.
34 Ka eluigwe na ụwa too ya, osimiri niile na ihe niile bi nʼime ha.
The heavens and earth praise Him, Seas, and every moving thing in them.
35 Nʼihi na Chineke ga-azọpụta Zayọn; ọ ga-ewugharị obodo niile nke Juda. Mgbe ahụ, ndị mmadụ ga-ebi nʼime ya, mee ya ihe nweta ha.
For God saves Zion, And builds the cities of Judah, And they have dwelt there, and possess it.
36 Ụmụ ndị na-ejere ya ozi ga-eketa ya, ndị hụrụ aha ya nʼanya ga-ebikwa ebe ahụ nʼime ya.
And the seed of His servants inherit it, And those loving His Name dwell in it!
