Abụ Ọma 77
1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Maka Jedutun. Abụ nke Asaf. Abụ Ọma. Etikuru m Chineke nʼoke olu maka enyemaka; etikuru m Chineke mkpu ka ọ nụrụ olu m.
For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I cried out to God; I cried aloud to God to hear me.
2 Mgbe m nọ nʼihe mgbu, ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị ka m chọrọ. Nʼanyasị, esetipụrụ m aka m abụọ, ike na-agwụghị, mmụọ m jụkwara ka a akasịe ya obi.
In the day of trouble I sought the Lord; through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary; my soul refused to be comforted.
3 O Chineke, echetara m gị, sụkwaa ude; echere m echiche, mkpụrụobi m dakwara mba. (Sela)
I remembered You, O God, and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint.
4 I kweghị ka anya m abụọ mechie; nʼihi oke mwute m, enweghị m ike kwuo okwu.
You have kept my eyes from closing; I am too troubled to speak.
5 Echere m echiche banyere ụbọchị niile gara aga, na afọ niile ndị gara aga.
I considered the days of old, the years long in the past.
6 Echetara m abụ niile m na-abụ nʼime anyasị. Mkpụrụobi m nọ nʼọnọdụ ntụgharị uche, mmụọ m jụkwara ajụjụ.
At night I remembered my song; in my heart I mused, and my spirit pondered:
7 “Onyenwe anyị ọ ga-agbakụta m azụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi? Ọ pụtara na ọ gaghị egosi ihuọma ya ọzọ?
“Will the Lord spurn us forever and never show His favor again?
8 Ọ pụtara na ịhụnanya ya nke na-adịgide ruo ebighị ebi agwụla? Ọ pụtara na nkwa ya agaghị emezu ruo ebighị ebi?
Is His loving devotion gone forever? Has His promise failed for all time?
9 Chineke, o chefuola i mere anyị ebere? O jichiela ọmịiko ya nʼihi iwe?” (Sela)
Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has His anger shut off His compassion?”
10 Mgbe ahụ, ekwuru m, “Lee ọnọdụ ọjọọ m, afọ niile mgbe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu setịpụrụ aka nri ya.
So I said, “I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”
11 Aga m echeta ọrụ niile Onyenwe anyị rụrụ; e, aga m echeta ihe ịrịbama niile i mere nʼoge gara aga.
I will remember the works of the LORD; yes, I will remember Your wonders of old.
12 Aga m atụgharịa uche m nʼọrụ gị niile, tuleekwa ọrụ ukwuu gị niile dị iche iche.”
I will reflect on all You have done and ponder Your mighty deeds.
13 O Chineke, ụzọ gị niile dị nsọ. Olee chi dị ukwuu dịka Chineke anyị?
Your way, O God, is holy. What god is so great as our God?
14 Ị bụ Chineke onye na-arụ ọrụ ebube dị iche iche; ị na-egosipụta ike gị nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ.
You are the God who works wonders; You display Your strength among the peoples.
15 I ji aka gị dị ike gbapụta ndị gị, bụ ụmụ ụmụ Jekọb na Josef. (Sela)
With power You redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
16 Osimiri hụrụ gị, O Chineke, osimiri hụrụ gị, taa; ogbu mmiri mere mkpọtụ.
The waters saw You, O God; the waters saw You and swirled; even the depths were shaken.
17 Igwe ojii wụpụrụ mmiri, mkpọtụ egbe eluigwe jupụtara mbara eluigwe; àkụ gị gburu amụma ebe niile.
The clouds poured down water; the skies resounded with thunder; Your arrows flashed back and forth.
18 A nụrụ ụda egbe eluigwe gị nʼoke ifufe, amụma gị nyere ụwa niile ihe; elu ụwa niile mara jijiji, tụkwaa oke egwu.
Your thunder resounded in the whirlwind; the lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
19 Ọ bụ nʼosimiri ka nzọ ụkwụ gị gara, ụzọ gị gara nʼetiti oke osimiri, ọ bụ ezie na ahụghị m nzọ ụkwụ gị anya.
Your path led through the sea, Your way through the mighty waters, but Your footprints were not to be found.
20 I sitere nʼaka Mosis na Erọn duo ndị gị dịka igwe atụrụ.
You led Your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
