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.
“To the chief musician on Jeduthun, by Assaph a psalm.” [I lift up] my voice unto God, and I cry; [I lilt up] my voice unto God: do then give ear unto 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.
On the day of my distress I sought the Lord; in the night my hand was stretched out, and did not cease: my soul refused to be comforted.
3 O Chineke, echetara m gị, sụkwaa ude; echere m echiche, mkpụrụobi m dakwara mba. (Sela)
I think of God, and moan: I reflect, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 I kweghị ka anya m abụọ mechie; nʼihi oke mwute m, enweghị m ike kwuo okwu.
Thou holdest my eyes awake: I am troubled and I cannot speak.
5 Echere m echiche banyere ụbọchị niile gara aga, na afọ niile ndị gara aga.
I think over the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 Echetara m abụ niile m na-abụ nʼime anyasị. Mkpụrụobi m nọ nʼọnọdụ ntụgharị uche, mmụọ m jụkwara ajụjụ.
I call to remembrance my song in the night; with my own heart I reflect: and my spirit maketh diligent search.
7 “Onyenwe anyị ọ ga-agbakụta m azụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi? Ọ pụtara na ọ gaghị egosi ihuọma ya ọzọ?
Will the Lord cast me off for ever? and will he never more give 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 kindness spent for ever? is his promise come to an end for all generations?
9 Chineke, o chefuola i mere anyị ebere? O jichiela ọmịiko ya nʼihi iwe?” (Sela)
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he shut up in anger his mercies? (Selah)
10 Mgbe ahụ, ekwuru m, “Lee ọnọdụ ọjọọ m, afọ niile mgbe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu setịpụrụ aka nri ya.
And I said, This shall be my entreaty, [for] the years of the right hand of the Most High.
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 deeds of the Lord; for I will remember out of ancient times thy wonders.
12 Aga m atụgharịa uche m nʼọrụ gị niile, tuleekwa ọrụ ukwuu gị niile dị iche iche.”
I will meditate also of all thy work, and on thy deeds will I reflect.
13 O Chineke, ụzọ gị niile dị nsọ. Olee chi dị ukwuu dịka Chineke anyị?
O God, in holiness is thy way: where is there a god so great as God?
14 Ị bụ Chineke onye na-arụ ọrụ ebube dị iche iche; ị na-egosipụta ike gị nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ.
Thou art the God that dost wonders: thou hast made known among the people thy strength.
15 I ji aka gị dị ike gbapụta ndị gị, bụ ụmụ ụmụ Jekọb na Josef. (Sela)
Thou hast redeemed with [a mighty] arm thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Osimiri hụrụ gị, O Chineke, osimiri hụrụ gị, taa; ogbu mmiri mere mkpọtụ.
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they shook: also the depths trembled.
17 Igwe ojii wụpụrụ mmiri, mkpọtụ egbe eluigwe jupụtara mbara eluigwe; àkụ gị gburu amụma ebe niile.
The clouds poured out water; the skies sent forth thunder: also thy arrows sped along.
18 A nụrụ ụda egbe eluigwe gị nʼoke ifufe, amụma gị nyere ụwa niile ihe; elu ụwa niile mara jijiji, tụkwaa oke egwu.
The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; lightnings gave light to 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.
Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known.
20 I sitere nʼaka Mosis na Erọn duo ndị gị dịka igwe atụrụ.
Thou didst lead like a flock thy people by means of Moses and Aaron.
