5 I jirila anya mmiri dịka a ga-asị na ọ bụ achịcha zụọ ha nri; i meela ka ha ṅụọ anya mmiri nʼihe ọtụtụ.

You turn us into victims our neighbors fight over; our enemies mock us.

8 I sitere nʼala Ijipt wepụta osisi vaịnị; ị chụpụrụ mba ndị ọzọ, kụọ ya.
You carried us out of Egypt like a vine. You drove out the heathen nations, and then you planted the vine.
9 Ị sụchaara ya ala, mgbọrọgwụ ya bara nʼime ala nke ọma, o jupụtakwara ala ahụ niile.
You prepared the ground for the vine. It took root and filled the land.
10 Ndo ya kpuchiri ugwu niile, alaka ya gbasara kpuchie osisi sida ukwu sida.
The mountains were covered by its shade; its branches covered the great cedars.
11 Ọ wasaala alaka ya ruo oke osimiri wasaakwa ume ya ruo osimiri.
It sent its branches as far west as the Mediterranean Sea, and its shoots as far east as the Euphrates River.
12 Gịnị mere i ji tiwasịa mgbidi ya niile si otu a mee ka ndị niile na-agafe ghọrọ mkpụrụ ya?
So why have you broken down the walls that protect it so that everyone who passes by can steal its fruit?
13 Oke ezi si nʼoke ọhịa na-emebisi ya, ụmụ ahụhụ si nʼọhịa dị iche iche na-ejikwa ya emere ihe oriri.
Wild pigs from the forest eat it, wild animals feed on it.

that you planted yourself, this son that you brought up yourself.
16 E gbutuola osisi vaịnị gị, e ji ọkụ repịa ya; mgbe ị bara mba, ndị gị na-ala nʼiyi.
We, your vine, have been chopped down and burned. May those who did this die when you glare at them.
17 Ka aka gị dịkwasị nwoke ahụ nọ nʼaka nri gị, nwa nke mmadụ onye ị zụlitere nye onwe gị.
Protect the man who stands beside you; strengthen the son you have chosen.
18 Mgbe ahụ, anyị agaghị esikwa nʼebe ị nọ laghachi azụ; tutee anyị, anyị ga-akpọkukwa aha gị.
Then we will not turn away from you. Revive us so we can pray to you.

Lord God Almighty, please restore us! Let your face shine on us so we can be saved.
