Abụ Ọma 70

1 Abụ Ọma dịrị onyeisi abụ. Nke Devid. Arịrịọ. O Chineke, gbata ọsọ bịa zọpụta m, O Onyenwe anyị, bịa ngwangwa inyere m aka.

For the leader. Of David. For commemoration. Quickly, God, deliver me, hasten to help me, Lord.

2 Ka ndị niile na-achọ ịnapụ m ndụ m, bụrụ ndị a ga-etinye nʼọnọdụ ihere na ọgbaaghara. Ka ndị ọ na-amasị ịhụ ịla nʼiyi m laghachi azụ nʼihere.

May those who are seeking my life, be ashamed and confounded.

3 Ka ndị ahụ na-asị m, “Ehee! Ehee!” laghachi azụ nʼihi ihere ha.

May those who delight in my hurt be defeated and brought to dishonor.

4 Ma ka ndị niile na-achọ gị ṅụrịa ọṅụ, nweekwa obi ụtọ nʼime gị, ka ndị ahụ hụrụ nzọpụta gị nʼanya na-ekwu mgbe niile, “Onyenwe anyị dị ukwuu.”

But may all who seek after you rejoice and be glad in you. May all who love your salvation say, “Glory to God,” evermore.

5 Ma mụ onwe m bụ ogbenye na onye nọ na mkpa; O Chineke, mee ngwangwa bịakwute m. Ị bụ onye inyeaka m na onye mgbapụta m; O Onyenwe anyị, anọla ọdụ ịbịa.

I am weak and needy: make haste, God, to me. You are my help and deliverer; Lord, don’t delay.
